I’m tired.
Got to the church this morning to see that we now had a moat around our building. I guess you don’t get 60 inches of snow followed by 50 degree weather and not have some run-off. We’re starting to stock trout in our parking lot next week. So this picture is AFTER Ray and I have dug a couple of trenches to run the water to a ditch AND put two pumps in the biggest lake.
Of course this is our handicap parking space. If you have a wheelchair or crutches and are planning to come to Pinecrest - please bring a personal flotation device with you.
After walking around most of the day in my waders (I’m serious), Amy calls. The kitchen faucet is leaking. No worries, just run to Home Depot and pick out one, I’ll fix it later.
Later proved to be costly. Right before dinner, the faucet decided it didn’t like Amy or the kids anymore. I walk in the door and wondered who put the church parking lot in our kitchen.
So, after a trip to Lowes and Chick-fil-A (kids eat free on Tuesday night!!) - I worked on my masterpiece.
It’s beautiful, if I do say so myself. The last faucet I put in was a brushed silver one in our old house with the help of Rowland Smith. Rowland also helped me put in a garbage disposal, fixed my dishwasher leak, and replace my sink. I learned alot from Rowland and here is living proof.
I dedicate this faucet installation to him.

The acorn did not fall far from the tree and the faucet looks very nice. What was the cost on that bad boy? Did not know that you were a plumber!!!! Do you do hardwood floors?, my next project.

I really think you guys are missing a golden opportunity to have fly fishing right there in Parker!!! I’d pump the water BACK into the lot and stock it with bass.
