Best I can tell....  Septic Tank....

I have been gone a couple of days and low & behold you guys find out what I have been doing...You guys have a GPS chip implanted or what...?

So, my house was built in the 30's back when they used two ft long clay pipe for the sewer line. Several years ago I replace the line from the house to the sidewalk due to tree root/clogging issues.

So, last month the wife calls and tells me the drain is not functioning, drain rooter guy shows up tells me about 55ft out, I have more root problems. This usually will last me a year before I have to clear the roots again...not this time.

I was at work on Friday night and get the call, the drain is plugged again, I get off work at 7:00am go home call the rooter guy, pay the higher weekend rate and same place..55ft.

So, the landscape guy had previously been scheduled to install new irrigation system around my house. I had previously killed everything off, so my house looks like it is in foreclosure...as several concerned neighbors have told me...

Since I have the trenching machine rented it's time to kill two projects with one machine...I spend all day yesterday digging under the sidewalk and out to the street to replace the clay piping. Fortunately for me when the city repaired the road 15-20 years ago the replaced the clay line under the street. So, 16'-3" of new ABS is now installed, but everything else has to be done before I can go to the rally...

So, I was up for 32 hours yesterday since I worked my graveyard shift Sunday night and have been at it since early this morning. I hope to be completed by this afternoon and back to the shop tomorrow.

I have a lot of work to do to get to the rally...

But we are looking forward to it.

Yep, years ago when I worked for a plumber he told me to remember 4 things when I start working for him.
1. You get paid on Friday, if you show up.
2. Shit always goes down hill, if it don't, you got a real problem.
3. Chew your finger nails at your own risk. If you miss payday I will assume you took the risk.
4. He is the boss, if I don't like it, find a new boss.
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.
