Readers, you will have to forgive me, for I am going to take a short detour from my series of columns about clamp-on pitlesses. I recently had occasion to pull a pump that I had installed years ago and, not having a pump hoist available, did it the way we used to do it.
As I write these columns and think about different subjects, I seem to have more to say about certain procedures and products used in our industry than others.
I failed to mention in my last column that the pitless adapter along with the submersible pump and the captive air tank have, in my opinion, been the three great advances in pump system technology in the last 60 years.
The editor of The Driller, Mr. Jeremy Verdusco, gives us column writers wide latitude in choice of subjects. This article was going to be about the marriage of my granddaughter, Samantha, to a fellow named Trevor, a second lieutenant in the Army Reserve, the event to take place in four days.
