[AT] Off Topic: Well Drilling

Mike this is the best advice I've seen on that site yet.  It's by a 
professional driller.

He fills in the details on how to know when you've hit water.

Thanks Charlie, I spent some time looking at the videos, as I plan on
doing something like that this spring. I wish it would have shown how to
install a hand pump because that's what I would like to do. We have a
pasture in front of our house that is too far for hoses, and hauling 5
gallon buckets for the horses is a PIA.  It would also give me a source
of water in case of a protracted power outage.
