How would I pull this off?
Thats what she said! Ok, I will quit talking to myself.
I have a lawn that has automatic sprinklers and then I have our driveway next to it and on the other side of the driveway is another patch of grass. That side of the driveway does not have a sprinkler system so I would have to hand water it. Any idea on how to connect my current automatic system with that patch of ground that does not have it? Do they have a system to go under our driveway and come out the other end to install the sprinklers there and if so, is this rather expensive? Thanks for any thoughts.

If this is a serious question, then yes, its a piece of cake. They make hose attachments that will basically bore a hole through the dirt under the driveway, allowing you to run some PVC pipe through to tie into your existing line. The hardest part is the trench work on the other side of the driveway to put in the new piping. Just make sure that the line that you would be tying into has plenty of pressure to support 3 or 4 (or however many) additional sprinkler heads. |

Holy crap, I am an idiot. I don't know how this newfangled technology works in posting in appropriate categories. Mike--can you switch this over to the Home improvement forum? Thanks for the thoughts BG, is this expensive to hire a company to do this for me?

For a shareholder in the Dubai Burj Al Arab hotel like yourself, you probably have this much in change in your car's ash tray. |

Actually, its not in the ashtray...I usually just keep excess cash lying around, under the seat or in the cupholders. I will scrounge around and see if I can come up with it...I know for a fact that I have a $100 bill crumpled in the trunk somewhere. And I do have a gold coin in my glove box, I think.
