Fall Harvest Moon
Our irrigation company sends around alarmist circulars declaring potential severe injury or death for our sprinkler outside valve if we don’t have our system shut down early in October. I’ve ignored this for several years now as the droughts have lingered on into fall and made more moisture deeper into the season a necessity, especially for trees, shrubs and perennials.
Even so, every once in a while, like this morning, I get up, go to the irrigation clock and punch manual start. That way I can run water through the valve when temps are lowest while reassuring myself that it’s not locked up, frozen.
It’s working. Yeah.
