So glad that you got new water pipes after seeing the state of the old ones. I would say that you needed them for sure. Plus, they are almost done, even better. Now you can get on to the other things you want to do. Good to see that you are doing great. Have a great day

Phil, it is great to have the new water and cable lines. It is frustrating not to be able to get in or out during the process. It was a good idea to keep busy inside while you waited for the work to be done. Best wishes Lightening is so laid back.😂

Phil, the good news is you don't have to weed the driveway!!! Shortly after I bought my house, the city decided they had to replace a bridge over a creek/culvert. They closed the road to through traffic. It was supposed to take three months. It took almost a year. Gotta love bureaucracy! It was a six man crew...one guy with a shovel and five guys standing around giving advice. 🙄🙄🙄

Hi Phil, They actually made the driveway look neat. I would think you might want to add more gravel so the driveway doesn’t get muddy during the fall rainy season. But they left it in pretty good shape. I’m glad you could finally leave your pretty prison!!! ❤

If you want to look on the bright side....At least they can use a shallow trench compared to what would be required where I live in the States. Here it would have to be at least 6-feet (1.83 meters) deep to keep the pipe below frost. That would really destroy your drive. P.S. Good to see Lightning.
