The increase made no sense.
I had shut my own irrigation down two weeks earlier.
The peaches were long gone.
Most of the back acre had returned to rough grass and weeds.
I used the well for the house, workshop, and limited outdoor water.

I checked the pump.
Pressure tank.
Switch.
Check valve.
No obvious leak.

That is what I do when machinery behaves incorrectly.
People tell stories.
Equipment gives measurements.
I wrote down:
Start cycles.
