Golly what fun it had today.

We had two old bushes that we planted 15 years ago. That got large and Mrs Carrera decided they needed to go. Two huge bushes gone. Of course one of the bushes was right on top of the water sprinkler line. That meant to get the roots out the PVC pipe was destroyed. It is astonishing how brittle the pipe has become. I had to dig a 4 foot wide trench to get back far enough to get good pipe. Of course that means I have two stubs that will not move that I need to hook together and replace one head at the same time. It was a real pain to get it put together since there was no real wiggle room. I would never have done it like that if it needed to old real pressure. Since it is a water sprinkler if there is a minor leak it just waters that too. I feel sure it will not leak. Golly that was fun.
