      2 things, 1 if you're going to volunteer to do something, don't complain. 2 if you leave it alone, document it, and make the city aware of the problem. They will be liable if anyone gets hurt. Nothing motivates a city to address a problem faster than a million dollar lawsuit.

He has taking a messy thing, the road which is losing its useful meaning as a functional road due to flooding. And restoring order, by which I mean, returning the world to a more reasoned beauty. Albeit at the expense of a different natural but equally beautiful chaos.
    And he does it all in a good natured, fun and educational way. You can tell a lot about the good character or this man from him just draining a puddle. 🙂

Then once the plumber ran the snake is was so satisfying to watch the water drain out so quick. LOL.

    The ‘logic’ of a 24” pipe leading into a 12” pipe is that the civil engineers expect a 12” pipe to be sufficient, but for some reason a 24” pipe had to be used for the street. Perhaps there’s a law that pipes under a road must be 24”. Perhaps the installation crew didn’t have 12” pipes of sufficient length to cross the road and decided that using a bigger one that they had would be better. I don’t know the actual cause, but I’ve certainly seen kludgy messes that look illogical later, but at the time were necessary due to circumstances.
