WE HAVE WATER....

Buster started barking at &:45am this morning. Beth went to the door and the guys were here to fix the water. She told them that the lines had not been done and they said they would dig by hand. So the started digging and soon found the issue. The threads on the pipe were worn off and the spray had dug a hole the size of a softball in the ground. So they replaced the whole pipe that ran in to the house, so we should be set for a long while. They were all done and gone in 2 hours. We had water and it was a great sound. We had to go to Lowe's, Michael's, and the beer store. We picked up lunch and came home. We went swimming for a couple hours and the water felt great. I finished replanting the flowers they had to dig up and waters all the potted flowers. So it was a great day and I am so glad we had water. We look back and think how bad it could have been.
