The initial excavation was done by the “pros.” However, I wasn’t exactly pleased with the end result. The following year I had to rent a small Kubota for a week and fix everything up. Nevertheless, the pros hauled out a lot of dirt and trees?! Wasn’t suppose to be any land fill on this site?!

I felt like a kid in a sandbox

Don’t I look like I’m working hard.

Making 1 foot lifts for foundations

Some iron oxide in the soil as well as clay

It was fun watching the excavator until he struck fill and old trees

Can’t believe the developers dumped this here

Oh lovely … what else did they dump?

Nice place to put a garage.

Looks good from a geo-tecs point of view
