26 Years Later…Yard Irrigation

We finally have an irrigation system at the Hayley home.

You learn interesting things while repairing your home. For example, while our yard was being dug up to remove the old sprinkler system and install the new one, we learned that our system broke about 6 months after originally installed. In 1988. ACK!

All’s well that ends well, though. Our new system makes keeping the yard watered super-easy. While we have it programmed to follow our city’s watering guidelines (we follow a conservation approach with strict days/times to water), the system watches the weather and doesn’t run if it’s been raining. We can also control it from our smart phones. Super convenient for helping to establish our new front yard landscape.

But more on that later!
