Pit of Despair Part 1

The last days of October and the first ones of November were thankfully brisk and cold. The serene yard was going to be discombobulated in short order..or so we thought. 
After calling 7 different persons, one chatted a bit and said he'd check back to see how things were going (he was retired), one returned my call and came to visit (Jerry Stock), and another responded the next day (Cody). Since Mr. Stock had actually visited the site, I opted to use his company. He was pretty sure it would be a simple fix. Dig up a bit of ground, fix the broken pipe we believed was down there, and it would be over. The equipment was dropped off Monday and when it warmed up a bit on Tuesday, work started. 




 Sharon popped by to see what was going on and was amazed at the pit created thus far! 

Everyone who visited was amazed. 


Mr. Stock was amazed. Where is the rest of that broken pipe??? The first section was found, but the rest was missing. 


He finally decided to lay one on top and just hook it to the one on the tank. He didn't like putting bends in the pipe, there are two, but it needed done. (I wish we could put GPS things on them like they did on the pipeline buried on the road last spring!)
