Roots

In the middle of routing out my sewer line last night with a rented 75' x 3/4" snake, Joe the Plumber appeared, and told me not to do it the way I was doing it. Fortunately, rather than insisting that he was right, he deferred to my approach, and instead, started to help out with the arduous work. I think there must have been a sequoia growing down there in the sewer line, there were so many tough roots.

Here's hoping the clean pipe lasts.
