Bought a piece of civilization. While you hate to spend that kind of money on something like poop, knowing that I will NOT in fact have to hold my breath every time someone flushes the toilet is worth a pretty penny. We've had the plumber out 3 times this year, and would've likely had someone within a few weeks from what we were told about the state of our pipes when they got started. I've gotten very, very good at damming water with towels, and our wet-vac skills are pretty impressive.
But now I am considering flushing that bucket of golf balls that our toilet advertised it could do. You know you'd want to try it too!
One of two big holes that were dug in our yard before 8 a.m. They did a techique called pipe bursting. They take an instrument from point A to point B and shatter the old clay pipe, so they don't have to dig up your whole yard. Then they feed the new pipe through and seal it.
One long pipe means no tree roots growing into the connections!
Had we forgotten the temporary flushing ban, this hole would've looked a lot different... =)
And that's enough crap for one day. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
