What a trying two days this has been! We bought a ROCK not land! As you can see from the pictures, there is so much rock instead of dirt. But finally after many hours of labor Mr Joiner broke through and was able to complete the septic system. In one of the pictures you have to look close but you can see he has all but one wheel off the ground, I was biting nails into...Man what a relief its over! Started out by digging about 8 foot deep and 8 Ft wide. I believe the length was 188 foot on one and who knows on the other two drain lines. Was a lot there is all I know. The concrete tank is 1000 gallons 5x5x9 and has 3 lines flowing from it. Wow at the plants I lost! But it was all worth it because it was a needed deal. Mr Joiner and his crew worked so hard and worked around all kind of obstacles in my yard. They took such care as to try to NOT tear up anything. As you can see its all down hill also so they had a task at hand that wasn't very easy, but they did a great job! And...They worked in the rain! His crew seemed to know his next move at just about every step, so things went along pretty smooth except for the finding rock stage if you look closely you can see in some of the pictures it was raining. Wyatt and Blake worked really hard helping them, and had a blast doing it, and sure got muddy! I watched for this part of the job, and did the cooking...LOL...In the first picture you can see the finished look, for now that is. I have lots of yard work to do now, found some of my bulbs so I shall get busy replanting. Chinking should start Monday if nothing else comes up (crossing fingers)....

We have doors! Finally! Randy designed them and boys and I helped him build them. Then I stained and added weatherproof clear seal. Doors are very heavy! But look great. Pictures were taken before stain was put on....Those pics will come next blog. Stained same as gable ends, golden pecan. All other logs will be stained soon as the chinking is completed....which I hope is soon! Outer and inter facings of the doors are different for strength. Anyone bored is welcome to help, just bring your energy!
