The new plumbing is in place and drying. Still want to snake the drain again and test the dish washer. One side worked great so hope the left is good also.

Learned a lot today. Kitchen is still plugged and I will auger it in the morning. The lines I had it worked it is a clog further down the line.

Update on our losing battle with the grasshoppers.

The kitchen sink is plugged again today. It has already been a few hours and will be a little longer.

Plunged trying to break it up but it didnt help. Now I have resorted to draino and eliminates any further use of the plunger today.

Tough year all around for anything growing on our property this year.

Last we had the deep hard freeze to about 0 colder.

This year we had a hard freeze and the latest freeze I seen here in 22 years.

This summer the heat started early and if that isn’t enough this is 2022 so we are having the cyclic grasshoppers/ locust issues like in 2002 and 2012. Almost all leaves have been destroyed and the plants and even trees branches are being damaged. All fruit has parised and little vegetables are surviving.
