What the heck causes that? I'm from Houston, where everybody also has a St Augustine lawn, but I've never seen this before. If the ground is sinking, why is my house just fine? Weird!

The same thing is happening to my sprinklers. So weird. I know as time goes on, most heavy stuff sinks down into the earth but why sprinklers and sprinkler piping. Makes no sense.
