Step 37 - Extending Large Retaining
Wall and Installing Plumbing Lines
Art told us about a small backhoe
that could access the area next to the septic tank--very challenging
area to work!
We were glad to use the machine to dig Art's plumbing lines
But digging the 5 foot wide footing was even more critical...it worked
out great!
After forming the footing, we got 2 inches of rain in an
hour which ruined the footing--bah humbug
Edward and I cleaned it out enough to get to the
steel, then Gus, Edward and Sylvan took it apart and we all cleaned
steel,
and then they got to
put it back together again. Talk about Groundhog Day.
We were thrilled to get it poured before it collapsed again!
We quickly
built the first section of the wall before it caved in again.
