Weekend Project

If you give a Travis a ditch witch....
...he'll dig a trench.
Once he digs the trench, he'll lay some pipe.
Once he lays the pipe, he'll attach some sprinkler heads.
Once he attaches the sprinkler heads....he'll hand you the shovel!

If you give a Joe a saws-all....well, I guess that's a later post, I don't have any pictures of the de-sheet rocked wall downstairs.

This was my Mother's Day present.
Underground sprinklers!
If you had asked me Friday night what our yard would look like on Monday I couldn't have answered...my head was in a paper bag breathing deeply.
Miraculously, after two days of hard work, the trenches are covered and the water is flowing.
Thank you Travis, you are incredibly talented.
Thank you Joe, you are amazing!
This was a perfect way to spend Mother's Day
