| On Wednesday, November 2, I walked outside to empty the trash and oh my! we had six geysers running full blast on either side of the driveway! (see photo above). Thank goodness it was a water main and not a sewer main that broke! Papa Tom collected gallons and gallons of water for the poor bedraggled peach trees, which were totally stressed from the never ending hot, hot, dry summer of 2011. |
 |
| The driveway is about to meet its match. |
 |
| City workers took out the end of our driveway and pumped water out to get to the broken pipe. Papa Tom says no dirt was left under the driveway because the water had washed it all out. |
 |
| Pump power! |
 |
| Luckily I moved the Zoomer to the street before the driveway surgery began. I don't think I could have backed out past all this, and I had a guitar lesson to get to! |
 |
| The pipe patch is in place. |
 |
| Finishing touches? |
 |
| Filling in the hole |
 |
| Temporary asphalt patch. The City will send concrete workers for final repairs. |
