All's well . . . wellsprings of joy

The worker who nearly fell into the well, thereby discovering
it, offered to take a picture of it for me while sitting with his
legs dangling over the edge.  Can you say vertigo?
Guess what some construction workers replacing my cracked and fissured concrete floor discovered hidden beneath its surface???   A well!  A 19th century well, with an antique bottle floating in it.  Here I have been searching for houses with water on the property - stream, brook, pond - and I have been standing not two feet above the top of a well shaft with water at the bottom in my own house everyday for years!  I am so excited.  Talk about the magic that lies just beneath the surface in this world!
