Default my tale of water well woes

was awakened at about 4:30 this morning by an odd sound. of dry pipes.
power wasn't out, so what's the deal? turn on a faucet, sure enough, no water. lamp on in the water shed, can't be frozen pipes....oh, not that again.


so, now we have 100 odd feet of pvc and our submersible pump laying in the back yard. AGAIN. fitting where pump attaches to pvc has broken. AGAIN.

that stuff is dammed good water...but what a pain. so, tony off to the hardware store for glue and fittings......

but the warm shower later will be worth the effort.

Land O Goshen.




Breaking news as it happens.





Trolly is off to the hardware store.....MILT is all alone.









Will Trolly encounter trouble?



Will he find that fitting?




What will MILT do in the meanwhile?

















I'm afraid the answers to this and many more eye popping questions will soon be posted.





I told you ya just can't buy stuff like this.
