It is about 200 yards from the house , about 12' high .
Perhaps DD will have to bring over a 1" cannon to try out also .
Neighbors drive by daily checking out the growth progress  ;D

I'll go for it!!!  It's suppose to be in the 40's Friday, 39 And sunny Saturday, then cool off again. How about Saturday.  Not supposed to be back in 40's until the week of the 7th.  Have a Doctors appoint in Kalispell on the 7th, from there I may go to  Idaho to pick up the GAV prime mover.

I have your ultrasonic cleaner, Krupp Ammo and linstock cord to get to you. Let me know if Saturday is good.

I have a 1/4" nozzel hooked to a 2" tee . I let it run to keep water flowing .  It is a 8000' 2" plastic pipe from my spring . All the line is on the surface .  Most often it freezes before the fountian can build that high .
   This year we got a bit of snow cover before the - temps hit.  I'm sure it is about done growing .
