Of Pipes and Air Blocks

Its been more than ten days and the Saga of the Dry Taps continues. At least in the kitchen. Everywhere else it's more like the Story of Drip Style Irrigation. Which, in effect, leaves us waiting a couple long hours for a small bucket to fill.

Why the blight?! Why this be? Why anything be! Why we all be, one may well ask! However, descending from the ether of existentialism, let me attempt to answer that. Motors that are supposed to be pumping water, from the depths of the sunken water tank up to Casa Rooftop, have, on the one hand, developed air blocks in the pipes. And, on the other hand, managed to burn out certain parts that I am guessing are key to the whole Miracle of Water business.

All of this now effectively leaves us high and dry. Pun totally intended!
