Wow! We moved the big tank!

 

For weeks now we have been pumping (bit by bit) the water from our bottom tank up to our top tank, it had run dry because of the drought, we haven’t had rain at home since November 2019 and although Mum and I are careful we have to water all our animals as well. Mum bought a pump which can run off our solar power and in the hot, sunny afternoons we pumped water.

Eventually there was only a little bit of water left, we were ready to go!

Uncle John brought a big flat trailer down and some friends and they heaved and swore and sweated, eventually got the tank sort of on the trailer.

They tied it on and off they set…about 100 mtrs up our paddock they had to stop and tie it on again because it kind of fell off a bit. I was worried that might happen on the road but about an hour later we got a picture from uncle John…they had got there in one piece!
