I'm really hoping that all of this works out and pays off. The city water service is $600/yr plus any overages. I'm hoping that we can come up with a safe way to treat our water that we catch off of the roof. If so, we should be ahead by the end of year 2. I'll add a 2nd cistern for water out of the creek to use for irrigation. Don't see any sense in that though until we move out here full time.

| Loaded up and headed home. A tank of gas saved me the $250 delivery fee. I've just got to figure out how to unload it by mylself! |
 |
| Unloading turned out to be pretty easy. Get is started rolling and get out of the way. 250 lbs but it tipped over upright easily. |
