Wacky Wednsday

Yeah, don't worry. Wacky Wednesday is a one time thing-I think. There are strange things going on in town today. One of my neighbors is apparently having problems and has called in her son to take care of things. The thing is; he doesn't know where to look. You see, I live in the land that time forgot. And these people have old fashioned ways. Now see, wasn't that polite of me? For some reason they all tied their septic system together and so there are often problems. It's like a time bomb just waiting to go off. If just one neighbor doesn't take care of their system, everyone suffers. Guess what? Some of the neighbors aren't necessarily good neighbors.
And long over due if you were to ask me. It might not be so bad but they tied these systems together in an area where the river water covers it during floods. Like the flood we had last June. Compounding the problem is that sandbags got wedged into the hole where all the systems meet. Where is that Dirty Jobs guy when you need him? So now individual systems are starting to back up.
So I see this guy out there today, digging random holes in his mothers yard. Oh yeah and in her neighbors yard too-the neighbor to his north. That is the wacky part. The system meets south of his mothers and we already know from the guy at the very end of this thing-that is where the problem is because his system is backing up too. And the guy at the end is very unhappy because he has everyones crap in his yard. Can't say I blame him.
So very glad we are NOT a part of that system.
But the birds are singing and happy. Robins are checking out the holes being dug. For them, there are no problems-only solutions!
