Taken to task lately...

For not posting progress reports...

The plumbing is about 90% complete, and I will only get the placement of the switches, outlets and lights before I go.

Today I put in a dropped ceiling for the hallway and above the main kitchen area for some visual interest...

Suppose I should give an update...

The rough-in plumbing is nearly complete...

And I have a large bump on my head from leaping out of the well rings through a very small porthole after I turned the water back on from inside the casings...

I heard a noise that alarmed my primal core and turned to see a rattlesnake staring at me from a foot and a half away as he sat on one of the controls that was mounted on the inside of the concrete casing rings...  I shot straight up that porthole that had me struggling to get out of an hour earlier.

Good thing I had taken a large duke that morning or I most likely would have soiled my drawers ; )

Back to work...

Just for a couple of weeks...

Flew in this morning, with an extra bonus from a very generous friend...

And here was my greeting committee at the house...

Not to mention the sight and smell of dead mice in the RV ; )
