Relief

The dig did not start right away as planned. After going to the post office, the bank, Taco Bell for munchies, and Wal-Mart for a door insulator, the dig began. So roughly three hours after being told to dig a hole, we finally went out side to do it.
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".
