journey hopefully at an end... The issue turned out to be a broken ground wire between the different valve boxes. has been reinstalled too.

I should have been able to deduce that this contiguous failure was due to something connecting the boxes but it was hard to diagnose since it worked intermittently (maybe due to vibrations of the wire?)

Anyway, hope this is it and that our plants bounce back.

Die Bewässerungsanlage braucht ein Upgrade... die hat es letztes Jahr nur so mäßig übern Sommerurlaub gemacht. Ein Magnetventil muss noch rein und zwei Wasserabgänge ohne Ventil. Ein Drucksensor nach der Pumpe wäre aus Überwachungsgründen auch wünschenswert... na mal sehen :thaenkin:

Warm, dry weather has led Central districts to start water curtailments in July as the natural flow in the Deschutes River dwindled. Although winter snowpack was ample, dry soil has absorbed some of the runoff.

"The Colorado River is governed by more than a century of legal agreements, most of which were hammered out by generations of older white men. The ranks of the river's top policy negotiators have begun to diversify in recent years, including more women and people of color, but still tend to skew older. [JB] Hamby's inclusion marks the first time a member of Generation Z will be at the negotiating table, making deals for the Southwest's most important water source."

pre-school education on cycle and with @planetwater.

The kids were super interested and we had fun experimenting with water, seeing how rain replenishes a well, how rivers are connected to the subsurface, and how contaminants move in the subsurface!

Kids had also prepared their cork-boats that floated on the creek nearby

We all had a great time!
