really good water hose splitter

Yes, a freezeproof yard hydrant.  I'm not brand loyal to many things, but Woodford yard hydrants are on that list.  In this case, it's a W34.  I like the Y34 better because it pulls the plunger straight up.  The W34 is a bit cheaper version and puts some side torque on the plunger as it pulls it up.  This one was already here, and I haven't bothered to change it.  You can see it has leaked some, but so far just tightening the nut over the gland has taken care of it.

You probably don't need them down there, but once in a while stuff does freeze here.  I'll put RV antifreeze in the hoses and run it into the things here that can freeze, and leave the hoses disconnected the few nights we have to worry about freezing here.
