NOTHING TO BE ALARMED ABOUT!  A CONTRACTOR HIT A MAIN AND THEY HAD TO SHUT OFF WATER FOR REPAIRS.  NO ETA ON WHEN THE WATER WILL BE BACK ON!

Should be about another hour. The contractor hit a major line on Thrush.

Thank you for the information, I tried to call the water company but the phone line is busy!

I knew I could count on you all for the latest information! 

I am at the top of Heath Creek, I saw someone digging early this morning on Thrush.

The lady at the water co. told me she did not know how long it would be off.  Where did you hear an hour John?

I was about ready to drive up to mthigh and start kickn' butt and taken names, or however that saying goes.   :laugh:

Come on Hillbilly, I have my ways  ;D
You could always call her back up and let her know the details.

The 1 hour came from the person working on repairing the damaged line. It is definitely a major line in town and that's why so many are out.

We lost water on Lark, but now we are back at about half strength.  Which actually makes us at about quarter strength, because on a GOOD day we are only at about half the pressure. ;D

Hillbilly, you have no water??   I'm only a half a block from you and have not noticed loss of water or pressure.   Of course I haven't really tried but no one at the house has complained.   I just started a load of laundry and noticed the water was running fine.

Send the little Hillbillies up the street if they need the outhouse.

Thanks for the offer!

When we got back up the hill today around 4pm, and our water was back on.

   My Neighbor yelled over the fence that his water was out, as was mine, but that the lady next door to him on Lark had water?

   I guess there's some type of grid that alternates between blocks.
