See that enormous tree? That is the cause of the problem. Apparently, the roots had grown right through the pipe that goes from our house to the street. The plumber was able to use some fancy technology to send a camera down to investigate and send a auger along to bore it out. He also said that we should get it bored out every 2-3 years (and he mentioned that it's close enough to the edge of the property that city might come and do it for free).
That makes me wonder. Will I actually remember to schedule this with the city in 2-3 years, or will I just wait for another weekend emergency?
