Relief
First, we had to pale out all the water from the leak with a bucket. Rather, Blake used the bucket and I used a gas station cup. Luckily the leak was only like a foot away from the pipe we could see when we started. We ended up digging about 5 feet in diameter of the leak. Blake and I scooped out the loose dirt with a cup and a baby shovel. My mom and dad went to Lowes while Blake and I finished up the last portion of the digging. They returned and put the fitting on. We've had no leaks so far.
Then I went on a walk and Garfield came with me. He killed the tranquility of it all with his constant "meow".
The Dig
Hooray for trench digging...Today is going to be a long day. One of our water pipes has ruptured so we have to dig the entire pipeline out to replace it. All in all, I think it's abut 40 ft in length to dig out. On a lighter note, I made an 80 on a Humanities quiz yesterday. I will post the outcome of the dig today later on.

Watering the cattle.
Career Change
Since I have recently changed my degree plan from Physical Therapy to Communications, with an emphasis on Journalism, I am going to write articles on here to practice. Also, since I want to be a photojournalist, I am going to post pictures with my stories. Right now I have to go fill up the water troughs for our cattle so I will write later.
