Just out doing my Murphy's Estate walk and ran into a gentleman who lives there. I did not take notes, but here is the gist:
  • Water main break happened last night on Odell.
  • Huge amount of water, running right through this gentleman's yard
  • Water dept. could not get it shut off for 3-4 hours
  • Right now his back yard is being dug up; at least to the point that the sod can be removed. He was told it is easier to replace the sod than try to clean up mess.

He could not get over the amount of water that flowed from Odell into his cul de sac. He was happy with the work the people were doing to clean it up so far.

I suspect this is why they are flushing some hydrants in the area.

Your eyes in Mallory....
