February 24th. First Day Our Water Truck Is In Water Action.

Water Sight-glass
It's pretty nice. Here we are, Friday afternoon, and Jeff is off work early (all that over time)! So today is the day he wanted to test out our water truck. Why not? It is sunny and moderate, on this late February afternoon. So he went off to the watering hole, which is right next to our gas station for Parks, just about a mile down the road. He was there for a while...it is a huge tank and a super slow pump, which the watering hole has. Jeff said he encountered a couple other people wanting to get water for their smaller tanks; but they took one look at that 1200 gallon tank, and drove right back around from where they came from! When he rolled back in front of our house, I immediately wanted to take pictures of this "first" with our vintage water truck! It has a tiny leak in the base somewhere, but nothing too extreme; and the force of that water pouring out of that hose...wow! This is so awesome! We even offered to give my friend Adi, who lives right down the road, some of the extra water we still had, after our tank was over flowing...but alas...the water guy was at her house filling up her tank. Such is life. So yep! There you all have it! A working water truck!!!
