    So many things to comment on. Happy birthday to your son, holy cow your lawn is beautiful, good thing you’re a special kinda guy to take care of your extra special lawn. Finally, thanks for the memorial scene. I used to get upset when others didn’t observe Memorial Day as I do. Now I believe it’s hard for someone to reflect when they themselves didn’t experience a military life. I would serve again if my body would let me. Thanks Pete

    I have a problem with grit getting in my springlers after about 1 hour of running on the well. They slow down and stop the water flow. I have to tear down the springlers and blow them out with compressed air. Do you have this problem? Do you have a filter? If so what micron? I spend 3-4 days a week moving and cleaning out springlers to water approximately 2 acres of fescue and burmuda.

    Pete, as a veteran I do appreciate you having the distinction between Memorial Day and Veterans Day correct.
    Great video, I had to smile while watching it as I do this exact same method in my yard and its very effective at keeping the yard from dying off/going dormant during the northern Virginia hot dry summers. One thing I did install on my well that you may want to look into is a device called a Cycle Stop Valve - cyclestopvalves.com/.
    What the Cycle Stop Valve does is keep your pump from constantly cycling on and off while there's a steady (more than 1 GPM) demand for water and allows the pump to run the whole time allowing it to produce the pressure. Cycling on and off is hard on your pump and it would much rather be running full blast than cycle on and off. I've had it installed for almost a year in the house and have been extremely pleased with it especially considering the low cost for it.
