All I get after the lengthy download is this, with audio that sounds like rushing water:

Randy, can you up-load to You-Tube and the post the link.  That vid in that format takes up a lot of space on this site.  :occasion-xmas:

It's easy enough that even I can do it.

I've got a spot on my 20 acres just outside Bowling Green, Ky. where water comes out of the side of the hill.

 

Could be we are both hooked up to the Mammoth Cave system?

It is very possible. That cave  system covers hundreds of miles in all directions.

I have a cave across the street from my house. The bats come out in the summertime at night and buzz the house collecting insects. They are fun to watch.

That looks like an old Cart Road culvert from this angle. 

 

What's beyond the hole in the side of the hill?

That is a 60 foot drainage tube I buried when I built my house. It's to divert this water away from my house. The wet weather spring is above that tube.

We've got several locations like that on our mountainside property as well.

 

We have one stream that runs pretty near all year that sprouts up out of the ground and runs maybe 100 to 200 ft then goes back under for about the same, comes up again and stays above ground at that point.

Had a wet weather spring where I built my shop. We had the track-hoe dig a pit at what seemed to be the wettest point and a four foot deep trench away from it and filled them with 1 1/2"-2" crushed stone. That moved the spring away from the shop about fifty feet.     :handgestures-thumbupleft:      Works like a charm.
