seaching for water

 We need water !!
So we are starting our borewell digging in the begining of the night.

It was very disappointing because the land  is very rocky. So we did 5 bore well .We had to bring a man from Bangalore to search for the points of  water  but  3 points failed and in the other 2 not much water but enough for now.
