Anyone else daisy-chain their extension cords? Brownsphenom maybe... Only way to keep them untangled.

Or best way I should add. There may be other ways but the daisy chain is easiest that I know of.

Untangled and untwisted. A buddy showed me that about 20 years ago, still using some of the same cords.

I wrap them around my elbow like it's 5:00 and I'm packing up the truck. Ironically, I still always tie off my extension cords to whatever is plugged into them.

So this rock wall problem stems from the FRONT of the house I discovered. After doing some investigative work in the rain it was obvious the water is coming from the front roof Gutter, backing up in the pipe to the street, coming back out, around the side of the house and over the rock wall hill in back. So spent the day yesterday with an auger clearing the pipe that empties out to a hole in the curb. (which sets low because of how many times the street has been paved) That thing has to have been plugged for many many years and the reason the rocks eroded. So I've been getting water from both sides of the roof all in one drain. What a puzzle this has been. Hopefully I'm done.

Good work though, most people would have hired that done.

Thank you. It is somewhat rewarding if all goes as planned the next downpour.
Mother Nature will let me know how well of a job I did. The hose water doesn't have her power.
It needs a good flushing I'm sure.
