We had a three ring circus going between Danette, Kevin, and me.
Jenny tries out the compactor.
We arrived at the site early Monday morning and started filling and compacting the remaining soil in the geothermal source field but as the sun warmed the site, the ground thawed and things became very slippery. We came close to burying the 2000 gallon water truck trying to get it closer to the hole. Even the excavator was sliding around on the slope which, I would imagine, is very unnerving if you're sitting at the controls. Danette took it in stride. Kevin seemed to enjoy hot roding the skid steer around in the mud. It rained last night and the forecast is for more through the weekend. This puts things on hold until the site dries a bit.
I have had several people ask how the geothermal system works. Here are a couple links to sites that have more information on how it works.
