The water main near us broke so we have no water. It was fine this morning when my husband got ready for work so I knew it wasn't a frozen pipe. I called the water company and they told me about the break in the line and said that they were working on it. They couldn't tell me how long it would take so I decided to go to the grocery to get several (20) gallons of water.
On the way I saw a water company truck and one man walking around with some stick-like thing. I guess it's a divining rod. No repair work was being done yet. He was gone when I got back from the store. Still no water though.
Update: The water has been back on for a few hours now. I still have quite a few jugs of water left. I'm trying to convince everyone that was my plan - to add them to my earthquake supplies. I don't think they're buying it though.
