I finished up my current list in the Nampa 83686 yesterday except for one that the main couldn't be shut off because the valve is at an angle. The homeowner will be working on that and I will probably go back to it once I get some of the others caught up. I also was able to get to about 9 or so of the sprinkler blowouts in the 83687.
Things That Make You Go Huh?
While watching water come out through the sprinkler heads in a front yard yesterday a lady pulled up to me and asked, "Do you do sprinkler blowouts?", I looked at her, then the water and steam coming from the sprinkler heads, and then back at her and said, "Nope." Before I could say I was kidding she said thank you and quickly drove away………… When she drove off I think I actually made the "Huh" sound like Scooby Doo……….. As Bill Engvall put it, "Here's your sign."
Today's Route
I have 25 sprinkler blowouts left to do in the 83687, and probably won't get to them all, but whatever I miss will be done on Thursday when my assistant is with me before we go to Meridian. Here is the route for the day. Make sure gates are accessible, valve boxes visible, (when I say visible, I don't mean with a 3" square of it showing where I have to excavate to get it open because I won't do it.) One can do amazing things with a weed eater……. And if you are leaving a payment, send me a text so I know to look for it. And finally, if writing a check, make it out to "The Maintenance Shop."
