This picture was taken tonight - still a lot of water.
The source of the trouble.
I got my best friend the shovel and dug out around the broken pipe - my contribution to the repair process :)
While digging I discovered a ratchet - which I guess must have been left the LAST time the pipe broke.
Randy's contribution: he brings home the pieces, and glues things back together. He says that's not his ratchet after all, so maybe the people who lived here before left it there? Although I am sure we have dug that particular pipe up at least once since we moved in...
Capped! We never use this spigot anyway... so this was easier than a complete repair.
Now to wait for the glue to dry and then turn the water back on and pray!

Oh sure blame my horse trainer. Is she that good of a scape goat that she is blamed for everything. lol
Well at least it was an easy fix - lol. And driving on the flat tire - I so have a brother who would do the same thing...LMAO.
The flat tire being driven on- yup-- I know a few (brothers of mine) who would do that too....
Nothing like a mud bath first thing in the morning, but maybe it would be a good facial? ;)
