Well Piping

This is a story about the well that went dry.  As you may recall, a new well had to be drilled here at the Becker Place late last fall.  The old pipe, all 300 plus feet, wasn't worth much.  Mike has been looking at it and thinking the only way to get better at welding - well, is to weld!  So, he has been hard at welding and planning for the last several weeks and today the swing is set and complete!  Note the special touches - cedar wooden head piece (with brand).  Swing made of Trex (with brand).  This thing is double tough!  It took both of us, grunting and cursing, to get that swing hung!

As spring flirts with us all, a swing back and forth, watching the snow melt and the dogs get muddy; it was a nice afternoon tribute to Mike's effort of creative and practical (reduce, reuse, recycle) art piece. 

Nice work, Trumbower!!


The artist enjoying his handiwork!  All that is missing is the gin and tonic!
