AFTER MONTHS OF FINANGLING, OUR DRAINFIELD PROPOSAL WAS FINALLY
APPROVED!
Chico carved out the drainfield
first
Then Patrick delivered loads of crusher mix to build a good base for
the drain field
Stanley moved
the crusher mix in tight quarters and built a good base
Then Stanley
brought some fill from the upper level to fill in the sides
Half a
drainfield!! Unfortunately, the island is out of infiltrators so
we had to stop at the halfway point!
Besides,
our plumber, Art is getting tired of shoveling, so we will start again
when we can... We finished
up the drainfield and Art installed the septic lines
We got some free top soil but we had to have it moved.
Patrick had tight quarters to deliver the top soil, but he is a pro at
maneuvering dump truck
We didn't want to drive a backhoe on the drainfield, so we rented a
steer skid, which Chip learned to operate...
it was rainy and slippery, but Chip only terrified me once when he
almost tipped over into the ravine!
But we got the top soil down, with Clada doing the raking, and then
planting some palms
After planting more palms, Clada seeded the grass and then it didn't
rain for ten days!!!! This
