The well drilling team of 4 persons seemed to have faired well in camping out on the back porch of the Bosque Santa Lucia reception center last night. The howler monkeys came for a visit and kept the crew awake part of the night but everyone was tired from a full day of work. On this second day of drilling, the men made remarkable progress in turning the auger. By late afternoon they were at a dept of 26 meters! At this rate, it's quite possible that they'll hit water in the next two days.
