because its hard to see in this one, but we changed out the porch rails for these nice ones with a hand rail on top. I know, like you care, but it looks better...In the background is the first ditch for the septic. Rob met with the guy from environmental health, and got a better idea of what he was doing. Because we underestimated the length of the septic field, we asked for reduction in the line length. We got it down from 100' lines to 80', but added a fifth line. That's what you get for building in a pond. With this much line to fill, we are going to spend about $1500 to $2000 just for the gravel. We had budgeted $500.
Today Rob has dug some more line, but now he's waiting for Denny to come see if he can weld something that broke on the backhoe. I think we will be seeing a lot of this guy for a while. Also, today Melvin is installing the wood floors. That will be an exciting transformation. Its a good thing we didn't know what the floors were going to cost overall, or we would have put down plywood.
