They Started Digging
The first step in making the pool was to diligently dig out a substantial hole in the lush garden, with the sun casting its warm rays overhead. Meticulously planning the project, Mark, a thrifty individual who wanted to save some money, took it upon himself to spearhead this endeavor. With resolute determination, he enlisted the assistance of his two enthusiastic sons, Toby and Brian, eagerly embracing the opportunity to contribute to a memorable family project that would create indelible memories. Little did they know, their efforts would culminate in a most unexpected and extraordinary outcome, weaving an enchanting tale that would be retold for generations to come.
A Metal Was Found
On the second day of incessant digging, Mark had almost achieved the desired depth for the hole. Beads of sweat dripped from his furrowed brow as his muscles strained with each thrust of the shovel. Nevertheless, a sudden pang of anxiety surged through him when the shovel’s metallic clang resonated through the air, distinctive from the familiar sound of wood. Was it possible that he unintentionally impaled the underground plumbing system concealed beneath the property? Bewilderment overcame him as he pondered the enigma. The distinct metallic reverberation, once again, questioned the limits of plausibility.
