Water Well Complete

The start of the water well, October 2011.... 2 happy guys, a pick and a shovel! 



Still digging...still smiling!




Now, this is 'real labor'.... a hammer, a chisel and a broken off shovel!





This video shows our worker, Babu, at work singing and grunting!





That's one big rock to chisel out and haul up 40 feet!



Babu,  all wet & muddy.....still smiling after spending 8 hours in a dark hole, that's 50 feet/15 meters deep, chiseling rock!



After all that hard work, from 2 great hard working guys and 11 months later the water well is complete, 45 meters/ 148 feet deep, with fresh, clean water!


*THANK YOU,  Flaman,  for funding this project!
