Serenity has landed

I can't believe it's been almost a month since my last post. It's been a busy month, including an almost-two-week, 3500+ mile road trip. About a week before we left, our Simple Pump arrived:

 The pump was installed, as advertised, in about two hours, with the generous help of Don, who works on pumps for a living and was curious about our hand pump. We now have water!

Water!



As soon as the pump was in and working, we began the process of moving to This Land (which will probably be renamed Raven's Nest, which apparently it was for many years). First, we moved the bunnies to the dog kennel, which Rosa the Chewdle doesn't call home. Then we hitched Serenity up and hauled her out to her new home:

Now it's time to go pump some more of that fresh water....
