Ugh, at this point I am just going to call for service. I dug out the stones and such and found the wire and piping. The wire leaves the house and turns towards the back of the house.

It leaves the stones and heads into grass. Florida grass is very strange, much harder to dig than northern grasses.

So far, I know it is 9 inches deep and about 22 inches from the house. Dug two more holes, one showed it still heading towards the back, the other I dug near the back and did not find the wire.

I have 20 some odd feet to search and my wire tracer is only good down to 3 inches. Manual digging in spots reqired.

If I get a sudden burst of strength coupled with desire, I will try another spot between them. Blah...why did they have to bury it out in the yard? They know it will need to be worked on.

Thanks for all the help!
