look at this mess back here
crazy in my yard
what's going on y'all kevin reese here back with another video today
i'm showing y'all my pond so my pond out here that you've probably seen some of my other videos
got this one pipe and you can see completely full completely blocked off the water out here is so
high because we've gotten so much rain lately and you can see all the the standing water back
here in the yard is really really bad uh this is where the pipe comes out at right here and
you can see how how blocked off it is we've got a slow slow trickle and that's really it this
is all we got right here so what i'm gonna be doing with is with my trusty shovel we're
gonna open this thing up some and let it drain so we're about to open the floodgates out here
all right so it looks like we got it flowing pretty good
so i got a little path now once the water starts flowing it's gonna
take all this other junk and stuff with it so the trick is getting inside this pipe
right in that pipe in there that's what we got to clear out so we're going to do that now
oh yeah
get all that out of the way
all right we're starting to get a little more flow golly
look at this
jeez
oh
god all right y'all here we go here we go here we go here we go all right
so
all right y'all
all right so compared to where we started look at this spill you can see it's spilling over oh yeah
we got it open up now for sure so look i threw this log over here to kind of
direct some of the flow of the stream so y'all can see
it's a night and day difference compared to how we started this right here is going to
be a problem because it's catching all this junk so i'm going to go ahead pull this old
vine out of the way this root so there we go that's better oh we got a nice open stream
so to give you an idea this is the the water level here in the yard you can see it's just
right up to the edge now i've seen it before where it's it's down probably uh out to here or so
a little bit but y'all can see this water is just standing water because
that drain being so clogged up this water is just sitting and like i can't even normally you know
i've got nice grass back here that grows you know in the backyard but uh i can i couldn't get i'd
probably get my four-wheeler stuck back here it's so swampy y'all can see just that mud everywhere
just standing water and mud i mean your boots are sinking everywhere you're walking just constantly
it's crazy so with that draining y'all can see i mean look at this look at this boom i mean this is
crazy so y'all can see now with that draining
big difference
peaceful sound y'all
let's go look you can see it being pulled in you look down all the water you see the
pollen and junk it's all getting sucked in there oh yeah it's flowing now so
i'll show y'all later you see how the water is going to go down out here but look at that
damn all right so i'd say it's been a couple of days but it's been a couple of weeks more like it
since i could get back out here to show y'all you remember where the water was compared to
where it is now it's come down a pretty good bit sometimes this needs a little draining
and the ground still is kind of soft back here but it's it's not near as bad now i was able to cut
grass as y'all can see like all through there but as far as right here is still too wet to get to
but look at this y'all there's not even any water in this area now that's where it was flowing
if you come over here see oh the junk i mean look at that so i mean
the water level is lower than the pipe so that's how you do it hope y'all like watching the video
