Thanks, esshup. Those are some good thoughts. While I don't have power there right now, it's just a matter of time to get it brought in and I have a generator for the interim. A submersible seems to make the most sense and I really like your suggestion of putting it in a bucket to minimize crud getting into it. I think given the fact that I'll just be using a hose to water for now, this simple setup makes the most sense. I like the idea of using a sprinkler, too, though, and may try that just for fun. Did the submersibles that I linked to fit the general bill in terms of what I should be looking for, or is another sort of pump more appropriate?
Thanks a ton for working through this with me!
