White Lightning Axiom: Redux

Huzzah! The sprinkler heads arrived yesterday. Now, the existing head is a 2.5g/m and the new one is only a 1.5 so I don't feel bad about getting a 360 instead of a 180 arc. Now the driveway will get watered as well as the narrow strip of fried grass on the other side of the asphalt ribbon of woe. I ordered an additional set of heads so I could get some coverage at the head of the driveway too, but did not feel the need to install it quite yet. I need to get a few parts first to extend the pvc from the back yard. I did, however, replace the broken head in record time last night. Sweetness! One less thing to do this weekend. Ahh, yes. A free weekend. No parties, no events, no travel. Just the standard stuff: Swim on Saturday followed by Perkins and Shopping, Church on Sunday followed by hours of back-breaking labor. Speaking of back-breaking, there was an accident on the Turnpike this morning. It was between the KOP and Mid-County interchanges. Right on the bridge over the Schuylkill river where the aromatic sewage processing plant is located. The resulting back-up went all the way to the Philly exit and had ancillary log-jams on the NE extension and the Blue Route. The Ft Washington and Willow Grove on-ramps were a lost cause - no triage for them would do any good. Killed 45 minutes of my day before it even got started. Fan-tastic!
