Unattended Water Hose

Last night I decided to do a little yard work. I busted out the weed-eater to cut down a mighty tall field of weeds in the upper section of our backyard. I accomplished the task, but that section of the yard still looks like junk because of a giant pile of firewood, tree sections, and fence parts. Yeah, overwhelming to say the least. After finishing my weed-eating endeavor, I rinsed out our ice chest that had been on the back porch since our camping trip during the monsoon season (Memorial Day Weekend). I took the newly rinsed ice chest to the patio table to dry, when I turned around, this is what I saw...A few moments later...
About 30 minutes later...
