Yesterday the guy from the water department stopped in front of the house and was checking our meter. It seems some high usage was showing up. So we started investigating and woe and behold we have a huge leak and it has been leaking since August 13th. We do have water for the house but the line going to the RV sites in the backyard is where the problem is located. At least we think so. It could be the new line going to the pool hall. However, there is a shut off on that line and it has not yet had any use. So now every line but the one to the house is shut off and waiting for repair. The plumbers who worked on it have been notified but haven't shown up yet and no word as to when they might. We have a meeting with the board of the water department to negotiate a solution for cost on September 22. The guy did a quick estimate of the cost and said we didn't want to know. Needless to say, the plumbers are not getting any good words from us now and perhaps never.
There are no visible signs or indications above the ground. I would say "when it rains, it pours" but rain is another thing we do not have.
