Sister Krupp (Linda) is standing beside the large tank that was leaking. The leaking created a pond and the pond attracted the frogs that made the horrible noise in the video of blackness and the frogs' horrible noise. The large tank is repaired and is standing properly on the concrete base we showed pictures of in a previous post. This is the back yard of our Mission Building. The concrete slabs cover access to a system call a "suck away". We think it works similar to a septic system. It seems to work well and there is never any noxious odor indicating what the system does.
View of the tanks from the other side. This gives you the perspective of how much larger the damaged tank is than the one on the concrete support box. It holds 7500 Liters, however much that is in gallons.
These two pictures show the hole made by the plumbers to correct a water leak in our new building. We have lived in it eight months. We noticed a significant leak in the southwest exterior wall some weeks ago. The building folks thought it was being caused by Air Conditioner drain tubes leaking. The Air Conditioners were shut off and the water continued leaking. The next solution follows the normal African "fix-a-building-process." First, bash a big hole so you can see the problem. Next, you fix the problem. And, then lastly you patch the bashed in hole and re-paint.
One of the plumbers climbed their ladder and took this. It's supposed to be close-up, but doesn't show where they are working on the leak. We'll know in a week or two if they repaired it. The side of the building will dry out. That's how we will know they repaired the leak!
