What are your Prime Day purchases?

[Chief Roundup]

It is the offseason. I am just curious what everyone is wanting or getting from Amazon since today and tomorrow are Prime Days where members get an extra discount.

Wow. Good luck. . This could turn into a real PITA real quick.

I know generally where it is because I drew a map over a land survey when they were installed, and I've tracked the wire up to a tee point. I'll be dealing with maybe a 5x5 area, so I should be alright. I'm pretty confident I can find the others too.


If I get desperate enough I'll try the dowsing rod thing.

I had a new valve and line installed last week and the crew was using a jackhammer on the earth the ground was so hard

I nearly shat myself when I heard it thinking they were tearing out my driveway but nope just the earth
