Road Repairs

A section of road has been overflowing with water, so we decided to drain the problem area; putting pipe under the road. We brought in large and small drainage pipe; the large to prevent the small from getting crushed and us having to start all over again. It took about an hour and seems to have helped, except we got hammered again with showers and had to quit at the same time as yesterday. Everything is saturated, and relief doesn’t seem to be coming anytime soon. The 6th and 7th are days away from getting the sand cover they need. Once in place we will begin shaping.

Anyone with connections? Please send sunshine and wind.


The photos reveal one of the funniest sequences out here. Miatek and Janek playing The Keystone Cops of Polski Drainage System. Janek broke too much wall, the water flooded out and the pipe used as a sleeve for the drain line was flushed away, and was referred to there after as Moby Dick. On a crappy day, this was a much needed laugh.
