99 sprayheads?!!

Holy overkill Glennman!

I have way more than that but they are overhead, gravity fed and unreliable. Some days they go on forever and other days nothing. Sometimes they make some flashes of light and a bunch of noise. I thought yours were the same way.

The only sprinkling my yard gets is high in ammonia. No wait, that tinkling.

Let Pepper out to do her stuff a little bit ago and heard a bunch of barking. Went to see what it was and she was playing with a 2ft garter snake. The way she was jumping at it bet she got bit at least once, but can't find any marks on her.

We have the same brand. Customer service is non existent, though. ;)

I have 12 foot spray heads. Each will throw water up to 12 feet. 11 sections if you count the koi pond fill and the car wash hose. 9 sections just for the yard. Some of them have never been touched in 18 years and work fine. Some have been replaced of course.

Where is everyone?

Come on out, Monday is over and done.

good morning. Not sure where I stand on the averages of farts.

Ditto. We had some rain last night. Sweet!

Good morning...

Never trust a fart!

The question might be better asked of our spouses. or in Richard's case, Pepper.


I had to drop a box off to UPS so instead of driving uptown I rode my bicycle and then kept going. Only about 4 miles but it's better than nothing.

What I lack in quantity I make up for in quality. Just ask my kids.

Our sprinkler heads are running right now. The weatherman said they would turn on at 5:00am but he was wrong.

The weatherman? So you have those really cool inverted sprinkler heads that are above ground. Those must be really expensive.

Free, but as Wayne mentioned the customer service is non-existent and the scheduling is unreliable.

We're only allowed to use the in-ground system one day per week. I like the overhead system very much. If only it operated more frequently.

try the naked rain dance method. get it on film for youtube.

Looks like half a day for me. The boy is sick and the wife has some meetings and my parents are not available. Looks like some more Flying Through Time episodes will get queued up.

The city water is rationing outdoor water usage to odd or even depending on the address of the house. Even number residents get screwed on 29 or 31 day months since the 1st is always an odd day.

Since I have a water well I just put up a sign that says irrigation by private well and the city does not bother me.

A few years back we had a large water main break that serves our area. We lost all water service. The city was working on it right away but it was several hours to dig it up and fix the problem. Toilets were to only real issue. I had several neighbors come down and fill up buckets for flushing. One neighbor three doors down said his wife first noticed the toilet did not refill so she went to the two other toilets in the house and flushed them to see if they would refill. Of course they didn't. He was rather mad at her lack of thinking. We all survived the few hours and the water came back. Not one zombie showed up.

So you are saying your well water is potable?

The well is not hooked up to our house. The water is for sure drinkable and I have had many mouthfuls when finishing up washing my cars. It is cold an tasty. And yep, it works great to flush a toilet.
