While windy until afternoon, Sunday turned out to be a beautiful day.
Mark
Siegman arrives at the dock to check out the solar power system he
helped to design. It was a good thing we managed to get the dock
installed the prior day.
Mark tells us about his trip across from the mainland.
Every
year we take a sample from the well to ensure that the water is
potable. After pumping the well to ensure it is running clean, we have
to continually pump it for 30 minutes before taking the sample - a task
that was undertaken in shifts by a number of us.
The
official sample is taken per instructions and sealed for delivery to
the water department back in St. Ignace on our return to the mainland.
Thankfully,we receive word from the water department on Monday afternoon
that the water is potable, and we can safely use it again this year.
