Keith Woolford Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Yesterday behind Plaza Los Establos there was a break in a 12" main which required Municipal work crews to give up their Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Woolford Posted May 26, 2017 Author Share Posted May 26, 2017 (edited) Received a WhatsApp message this evening saying that water service will be suspended on Monday 29th from 8:00 am in order to effect repairs to a 12" line in Los Naranjos. A RECOGER AGUA EL LUNES 29 A TEMPRANAS HORAS POR REPARACIÓN Atención mucha atención, a todos los moradores del distrito boqueteños y que son abastecido del vital líquido del acueducto municipal se les comunica que el aproximo lunes el personal de mantenimiento de Acueducto Municipal de Boquete estará realizando trabajos en la tubería de 12 pulgadas en el área de los Naranjos próximo a la Cantera. Desde las 8 de la mañana del lunes 29 de mayo el personal de mantenimiento en pleno estará realizando los trabajos y se desconoce el tiempo y la magnitud del daño en la tubería, según Roberto Jaramillo encargado de mantenimiento del acueducto.

Uncle Doug Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Note to self: do not begin shampoo at 7:59 Monday morning... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonnie Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Those of us residing in Palo Alto are not on municipal water, Doug, so you can shampoo away on Monday morning. I assume this will affect the few downtown and Alto Boquete restaurants that are open on Monday, e.g., Big Daddy's, The Oasis, Sugar 'n' Spice, etc. Has anyone heard anything?

Uncle Doug Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 I have to confess, Bonnie, that I knew that. It was a mild attempt at humor in an effort to help to keep this important notice prominent at Chiriqui Life. I do hope the residents and businesses on the municipal system are ready for no running water on Monday morning. I'd offer my bathroom to everyone on Monday except they've been advised in advance, and I'm almost positive that I'm not quite that generous in real life. Limited quantities of shampoo, etc.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much for the luck of the Irish. My sister's first visit to Panama with us in 2013, we awoke to find the water pressure at Mima's house in Los Cabezos so low that the showers didn't work. This is how we shampoo when that happens. Still, Nena says it was better than when they used to haul water from the neighborhood hydrant down the road. jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Woolford Posted May 29, 2017 Author Share Posted May 29, 2017 (edited) This latest notice advises that the water will now be off today only in Alto Boquete and El Frances, to be specific, from the Futbol Stadium and all points south to the river.
