Fixing the water pipe

My mom has had a leak in the backyard for a while now. The leak is in a planting box (a large one... includes a palm tree in it). THe water would get stuck in there and Craig would try and play in it. To make it worse, mold and fungus would grow since the water just sat there.

Well, on Saturday, someone got ambitious (I'm not sure who started it first) and we all pitched in to help fix this. My mom did a lot of digging and messing wiht pipes, Trevor cut and glued pipes, my brother Luke ran for pipes, and ends and such. I got to turn on and off the water, along with watching Craig, of course.

It started with just one pipe that we thought was the problem. However, once one pipe was fixed the other one would start leaking. Eventually both planters (both having two watering pipes) were stopped from leaking.

Yay! Now Craig can play in the backyard a little better without having to be told no he can't play with the water.
