Turns out it seems to be a break in the electrical cable running from the house to the pump-house. We get one leg of power but not the whole 220.
Now we need to call a locater, find the break, dig it up, fix it and then we will have water. Oh yes, there is still a good six inches of frozen snow and ice on the ground.
I'll be exploring a bit more tomorrow - thinking of heading into town and getting a couple spools of THHN wire and just float them over the snow - not code by any means but it will get the juices flowing until the permanent repair can be made...
