Hot showers!

After only two icy cold showers, Anders decided it was time to install a hot water heater! (He claims it is my Christmas gift =) He’s made quite a few other improvements too… but has come with some challenges. As hot water is a “hot” commodity, hot and cold water faucets are pretty pricey. The only reasonably priced faucets are single control faucets, so Anders set out to make a dual control faucet with two valves using numerous PVC couplings. He’s batting two of three, as both bathroom’s homemade faucets seem to be working fine without leaks, but he’s had to replace the kitchen faucet piping seven times and counting… Next time I’ll try to capture a look of his frustration.


Here he is with his buddy and helper Tenacon, who is helping him transport some water pipe. Later that day, the truck we had just purchased for the camp arrived, so no need to carry supply by motorbike any longer! (that’s just for you, Rich!)
