Water Pipes?

Since we have moved on Jewel Street we have noticed that our water bill is always on the high side. So this month it was $23.00. So Mariano went out in the front yard, looked around and noticed that some of our yard was muddy. We have a busted water pipe. How did that happen? No one drove over it, it hasn't been cold enough to freeze, so what other reason is there? But he dug about 3-4 feet and still haven't seen anything except water draining. Dad is going to have to get some friends in here to dig deep because they are thinking that the pipe is about 7 ft. in the ground. Now who puts in a pipe that deep? Leave it to our little Double Wide Trailer. Not to mention that Dad was on his tracter trying to help Mariano dig. He had that thing on the back like you are going to hoe a garden, well guess what he did, he knocked a big chunck out of our driveway. Our PAVED driveway. We haven't even had that paved but like a year. So I have a muddy front yard, two huge holes in the front yard, pieces missing from my drive way, and no running water. But I told Mariano something had to give, because that was too many people taking showers out Mom's and Dad's. So I turned the water on, the holes that they dig are already full with water since it rained today. So just enough to get some hot water and some showers and maybe one load of laundry. Mom and Dad are at the bank, Aydan is with them asleep so I think I will take a short nap until he gets here, then we are going out to eat for our Fourth Anniversary. So I will run because I am loosing precious snoozing minutes here.
