I needed to water the trees before they are planted. I powered the pump up and headed up the property. Neighbors later came en-mass to the my place to tell me that I had a geyser. Turns out the pressure relief valve tested itself. Now I need to see if it is broken or not installed correctly. If only it would rain....

The woman at the sprinkler company said she doesn't think my system was designed to run more than one zone at a time. OOPS! I was hoping I could to save lots of wires and complexity on the control system. Now I may need all 7 wires in the bundle I am running. Speaking of running wires, I am about 150 feet too short and have to get more wire tomorrow.

This morning I created a TODO list of about 14 things to be done before I can plant. They include application of fertilizer and lime, putting down weed mat, filling in the trenbch, finishing the feeder PVC and addition of drip lines, finding someone to bless the land and so on.

It is possible to start planting in a week, but each day it looks a week off.

In an unrelated iteam, twice in two weeks I was able to shout and stop someone from backing up into a guy on a mopen and one car just missed the other by 1 inch.

My good deads did nothing to add points to my account. As I exited Safeway the other day I found someone scraped the ide on my truck and drove off. It is not a big gouge, but it is very obvious, none the less, at least to me.
