    With all the snow and now the rain. I'm sure they are getting over worked this spring.

    Times like these, My neighbor usually has to add an extra to help keep up. Sometimes they even need to call in the big guns. Local fire department has help pump them out several times in the past. They must sleep on an air mattress JIC. :eek:

    I learned the hard way the first spring I moved in to this house my sump pump set up was inadequate. Nowadays I have a temporary rerouting of the water during the spring. Works fine but will eventually have it fixed for good.

    No the sump pump is for the snozzle, takes care of the lack of suitable drainage.

    The really bad part is as long as I am upright no real issue try to get some sleep ....

    That ugly white color has taken over again! Just when I could start seeing the grass! I was going to try and spread some ashes out in the garden now that I can actually see it again. Guess I can check that off todays do list!! Errrr.

    If I don't knock these things off the list I'll never get to fishing!!

    Went and grabbed a ton of PTL's this morning. Probably overpaid by $20 ($259) but that is cheap insurance to keep me from getting the :heidi:

    Pic for proof...

    Smart man. May be a little high, but the peace of mind is worth something. Come Oct. the extra $20 - 25 you paid will be a distant memory.

    This was the time of year I started doing the same, along with watching Craig's List for people dumping unused pellets cheap. It all adds up.
