Sometimes You Just Have to go Back to Low Tech!

Have to drag out hoses until the plumber can get out here Thursday! UGH! We had just finished getting the 2 pallets of sod laid when my guy messed up the electrical on the controller box!
But we were lucky because he had fashioned portable sprinklers some years ago. I gave most of them to my sisters, but he found a couple of the short ones. If you make them taller, they cover a larger area.
Actually, I think this just might be a better way to water the new sod without having to water all the grass for 20 minutes every day for a month. With the cost of water these days we will be poor by the first of August, but darn it, we will have a pretty lawn!


(BTW, it has rained so much in my area that it took from December until June to get enough dry days to get a small varnishing project done!) Actually, these are rather handy. While we were watering, he put one in the new plantings.
