The family. We are a strange little band of characters trudging through life, sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that binds us all together.

Still Dry

We called down to the water hauler this morning and the trucker slipped on the ice and broke his wrist so he wouldn't be able to deliver water.  We are going to have to wait until Monday!  That is just a little too long for us to "dry camp" so we hitched up our trailer with a 300 gallon tank and drove it to the community well ourselves.  $3.00 later, we had a little water back at the house to tide us over until Monday.  You can bet we will be watching our water reserves more closely this next go around.  It hasn't been that much fun to be without water for so many days.
