Following our trenching of the yard we installed 3 yard hydrants, one by the pool and garden, one by the chicken coop and one by the barn.

How we spend our Sundays!
We rose at about 0730 and called the HomeDepot at 0800 to check on the availability of the 24″ Trencher that was to be returned at 0900. They were to call us back, however, we never got a call. We finally were able to pick up the equipment at 1230.
Let the trenching begin!
We trench about 300-feet for water and electric. Were installing 3 yard hydrants, one by the recently moved and expanded garden, one by the chicken coop and the final one by the barn. Were also running a 20Amp line from the barn the the coop for lights and the heat tape for the water to keep it from freezing the the winter and to keep the chickens hydrated.
Pat assumed her usual role of driving the trencher.
The yard-hydrants are now installed.
The Garden begins to deliver
The garden is beginning to deliver crops, we have been eating Arugula, Egg Plant, Yellow Squash and zucchini, and tomatoes.
