Plumbing. I had to dig a big ditch to drain all the standing water My shoes are a muddy mess, my feet are wet and my back is hurting. I'm pretty sure I have enough room to fit the PVC cutters in. The break was below soil level. I can cap it off but will have to go to the hardware store to make it so I can hook up the waterer. I need to get from 1" PVC to 3/4" male hose thread. As I sit here taking a break. I'm thinking that may be plumbers are worth what they charge.

All is right with the world once again. I celebrated by flushing the toilet. As soon as my water storage container is done filling I'll take a well deserved hot bath then wash all my filthy clothes.
