Poop-hole

Yesterday was a long day. Most of it was good but there was much going on and not all of it can go well. In the case of this photo here you are lucky, dear viewer, that the smell does not travel with the image- if it did you would most certainly be leaving this page. This here would be a genuine poop-hole. I don't want to get too into the gory details, but basically our sewer line was at least in parts as old as our home- 100 this year. So it crumbled and was not draining correctly- which is surprisingly common and only became an imminent problem for us when the digging for the new garage began, because the run-off from our sewer was filtering into the the job site. Not so good. So these fine professional exterior plumbers came with a fairly amazing machine in which they burst the existing sewer pipe and then drag a new plastic sewer line behind it. This is called trench-less sewer, and for the most part it worked out well for us. Although they do not have to dig all along the line, they did have to dig this one big hole, right next to the main (city) sewer line, in the road. The sewer is about 10 feet down, so it was a nice deep hole, and when they managed to connect their hole to our sewer line, well, see that greenish liquid down at the bottom down there? Believe you me everyone around got to know more about our sewer line then they'd ever hoped to.
All's well that ends well- & our new line is guaranteed for 200 years...
