Water returns to the Barn!!!
After freezing up Jan 28th, the "frost free" hydrant thawed out and started running again today. Will enjoy it this week, then next weekend will tear it apart and rebuild it.

And then, remember to NEVER leave the hose attached; it doesn't allow proper drainage then. (Ask me how I know.)

I know you'll be glad to have that fixed, and water all the time for the barn!

Never have left a hose attached, but the bottom plunger was/is leaking. Will tear it apart and replace the wear parts.
