An addendum to the septic project is that the concrete pad that once was in the outdoor shower surrounded the hot and cold water pipes that feed the house. Larry used his brother's "cutter" saw to free the pipes. Unfortunately, the saw jerked and he cut the cold-water pipe. No water in the house for a day.
But, he replaced the pipe with lovely copper and it's in better condition than he found it. Of course it is. Larry can do anything. Today he is unsoldering the hot-water pipe and replacing the pipe with more copper in addition to adding joints. He'll add a mixing hose to both "boiler drains", so I can connect the hose to it and get warm water to rinse the puppies outside. Jackson is turning into a country dawg and is getting filthy every day.
Compared to the projects Larry is taking on during this trip, redoing these pipes is minor and an easy fix. Thank goodness. His poor body needs a rest.
