Over the last two days, we worked with one of our landlords to replace a main line for the irrigation system on this property. We hope to be able to irrigate an additional 15-20 acres as a result of this project. We put in 800 feet of 6-inch pipe, tying it into the old pipe at either end.
The project was fun - I enjoy working with other people on things like this. Hard work is easier when it's shared. The weather was pleasant, the jokes were silly, and before we realized it, we were almost done!
