Here we go again... Well #2



Saturday Rich took the drill rig out to our next drilling site in Caribe and set it up so he would be ready to go first thing Monday morning. Caribe is on the other side of Rio San Juan and is about an hour's drive from our house. 

This community is in the mountains and has an unbelievable ocean view but, they have no way to get water. I was out there yesterday and met a view of the people that lived there. I asked where they usually get their water from and it was basically a cesspool. The water was green. 

The community has been so gracious to Rich and his crew already. Many were sitting on the hill watching him drill and they are feeding him lunch everyday! Yesterday was the first day of drilling and they reached 52 feet! The goal is to have this well finished before the summer groups arrive. Hopefully today will go as smooth as yesterday and these people will have clean water very soon.
