Our friends & family were extremely generous with their wedding gifts. We decided that instead of going on a honeymoon, we would put in our electric and septic... ourselves. Laying sewer pipe(ABS 4') with Pam in almost knee deep mud really tested our marriage. Thankfully we were able to finish in time before the first snow fall. That winter we stayed in the Diamond Palace, heating it with an electric heater. This was an especially rough winter, since we didn't have any windows, family or close friends besides our neighbors.
