out with the old, in with the new
today was shitty and cloudy and rainy and all, but i was able to snag a few photos outside this afternoon of the old and new electrical lines running into the house.
here's where the existing 3 wires come into the house. as you can see, the pipe is leaning quite a bit and it's also rusted beyond belief. and the lines run all the way across our yard and halfway across the neighbor's yard. the new feed is going to come from behind the house straight into the new cable run to the left.
hmm...i forgot to look more closely at the new meter box and see if actually contains any sort of metering device yet. maybe we'll get free service for the weekend.
it appears that our house isn't the only thing in the neighborhood with crazy wiring. this shot looks like background straight out of an r. crumb comic....
