Im sure golf power going to raise every ones bill now like how they did last time
Theres a big puddle of water off 97 in front of the Johnsons house. The water main could be broken there.
I live right off 97 just before 164. I have a little water pressure not much. When I got up at 630 I didn’t have anything. So a little is better than nothing.
