I thought I would start a simple project of replacing a broken sprinkler valve. The new valve did not fit because it required more space between the pipe that came into the valve and the one that left the valve. Then in the process, I broke a pipe from another valve. It was also evident that another valve was leaky and should be replaced. Hey it was only a matter of time and they all would need to be replaced. So, it was off to Home Depot to get parts at nine and once back home it was time to work. However, I came in from the heat after 2 to take a break and to learn that it was 104 degrees outside. I thought it felt warm. The children never stayed long when they came out to visit. I will be staying inside until it cools off a few degrees. More later . . .
Leaky and broken
