Re-do the water lines

Up for exercise at rec center.  Good workout with Laurie.  Barry and worker got to the farm about 9.  They got lots of digging and work done ... and were left by 12:30.  GREAT to get these things done!!!! Dug and found pipe to shut off water that has been constantly running across the road at the old hog tanks.  Now it took 3 major digs, but the pipe was found and capped.  Then Denny asked if they had time to put a hydrant on the west side.  All the machinery was here, so it worked out great.  Well, not easy, the concrete pad was bigger than we realized, but Barry banged on the concrete and broke it out so they could dig the pit to put the hydrant in the ground.  SO good to have both of those projects done.  Denny worked all afternoon putting dirt back into the holes and transporting the chucks of concrete to their new home.  There were six of us for Bible study: Teresa, Sharon, Oksana, Jenn, Brenda and me.   At night we had a great meal.  Jalepinio poppers, salad and tine 99 cent steaks that we bought at a Dubuque gas station where we filled up with gas.  Go figure..
