It rained several times on Saturday. Donna had it worse at her place; she had very heavy rain and hail.
I had to delay moving the pipes until almost 6 pm but I was able move them. Donna helped me.
I was able to move the pipes without turning off the pump. First I partially opened another valve. The water shot out of the valve and instantly I was soaked below my knees. I got a board to block the water and was able to open the valve further.
Since I had 60 pounds of pressure with 29 sprinklers I decided to add a few more sprinklers. Also with my barn and yard in the way I had to shorten several lines. So I made three lines. I have a 11 sprinkler line to the barn; a twelve sprinkler line to the yard, and was able to have a shortened ten sprinkler line in the pasture. 33 sprinklers appears to be my maximum amount to still be able for a sprinkler to throw water 40 ft.
Below you can see I was able to extend the one line to have one sprinkler water the back yard.
