Nov 18/19 - on the road / more plumbing & electrical !

The 18th was mostly taken up by a bike ride.  We're having fabulous weather !  I did squeeze in the rest of the garden irrigation and finished that up on the 19th, testing and adjusting the sprinklers.

I did run into another leak -- whoever did the initial irrigation installation did a crappy job.  Some of the pipes can simply be pulled apart, obviously not using enough pvc glue.  What a pain.  Anyway, I solved that problem and tinkered with the rest of the setup.

I also worked on some more electrical, finishing up one box and the light sensor for the post light. 

Everything takes time.

Cassie had gone over to Jim's yesterday; ok, enough of that.  I re-installed the dog wire, which still has to be buried, and we retrained her to the flags.  She stayed in the yard today, much calmed down.  I've got conduit under the driveway that will carry that wire (not run through yet) and will have to run wires under the old sidewalk; need to find my implement for that in a drawer somewhere or buy a new one. 

Sandy has picked up some plants for the back and relocated a couple.  It's starting to come together.

We're not driving on the driveway yet; following orders and not driving on the sidewalk.  I think that it's ok but would hate to find out otherwise !  They said Monday, so it will be Monday.

Onward !
