So did you dive for the part, or buy a new one?

I recently tried to find the part on the bottom again using a long
pole and the current must have finally carried it away so I bought a
new one.

As far as repetetive things go, I had my son put in the fence posts
and they zigged and zagged all over the place. Fortunately these are
the kind you pound in so are easy to do. When I went to re-do it, I
spent as much time putting in one as he did for all of them.
I admit, I am a terrible people manager.
