No more Well Water!
As of last Thursday we were finally hooked up to the local water supply. Also, we recently discovered that the cable company has ran lines out by our house so we can get cable too if we desire. Slowly but surely, all the conveniences of suburbia are creeping in to our rural slice of farm country.
Today we had the water softener removed. Our well sits on top of a huge pyrite deposit (sulfur & iron), so without the water softener we get smelly orange water. The softener took care of that, but made rinsing off in the shower take forever. Also, when the water evaporated, it left white salt deposits behind. The salt also made the water undrinkable - I couldn't stand the taste, and noticed my nails became rather brittle when I was still drinking it. So for the past year I have been filling up gallon jugs of water over at the nearby water utility for a quarter a pop.
And now we have that very same water coming out of our tap!
Yay water!!

New Camera
Just picked up a new Kodak digital camera a few weeks ago. It even has a panoramic setting.
Here is a panoramic picture of my home on the farm...
