Quick Trip to the Mountains

Up on the Grand View Trail
Dr. K, Becca and I took advantage of the only day this week that the weather is going to be fairly decent to make a quick trip up to our place in High Rolls to inspect our property after the huge snowstorm last week, which was even more powerful up there.  We were lucky that none of the trees came down on our property, but we did find a cracked water line in the pumphouse, the main line out of the jet pump.  It had a slight drip even though the water system is shut down.  I called our well man in Alamogordo and asked if he could get up there sometime this week to make the repair.  He said he'd do it as soon as possible.
