The pipe is a little bit out of the area that the trenching was done, but they had so much large equipment out there digging Im not sure we will ever know.<br /><br />Sue: I love my country life so far! And yes, this hopefully will be just a minor setback. Off to the hardware store today to get parts!<br /><br />Penny: Right? I hope I dont sound like Im complaining because having that septic replaced was a huge deal. And ended up being a great thing for us...now we wont have to worry about that for many years to come. <br /><br />Our Piece of Country Paradise(OPOCP): Thanks for following my blog. That makes me smile. I AM very happy with my move. VERY happy. We did move to my idea of a little farm. We have about 2.5 acres. I will be getting llamas, goats, and chickens. Not necessarily in that order. :-) And I cant wait for that to happen.<br /><br />Brenda: Im glad that I was able to find the problem as well. At least, Im hoping that is the problem. :-) Im not certain how often the sprinklers were used and if they were they couldnt have worked very well in that area. The pressure is minimal...so hopefully this repair will fix that.<br /><br />CeeCee: Yeah, it appears to be easily remedied. What we dont know is if it needs to be reconnected or if one or the other ends just needs to be capped off. Seem strange that it would not be fully connected...just dunno yet.frugalmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03013856124264535872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1477740717079369166.post-73683563367047001142010-04-27T08:05:17.608-06:002010-04-27T08:05:17.608-06:00Ah, the joys of home ownership.

It feels so good when it works again.Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14685492126157550044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1477740717079369166.post-69873845050685587212010-04-27T07:14:42.274-06:002010-04-27T07:14:42.274-06:00Oh My!

That is a shame that is starting this way. At least the pipe looks like a pretty easy fix.<br />So I have been reading here for a few months. It sounds like you are very happy with your new move. What I cannot figure out though is did you move to a farm? If so how much land? Do you plan to get any animals? If so what? Ok sorry for all the question :)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13472219069662152722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1477740717079369166.post-11319134872735833412010-04-27T04:51:50.189-06:002010-04-27T04:51:50.189-06:00Oh.

But the good news is that now you have a brand new septic system, and you have all those in ground sprinkler systems and once you get that one fixed, you'll be all set. Right? I'm sending good, positive thoughts your way.
