This would have to be the day from hell. Monday I
had the trenches dug for the sewer and gas lines. We hit a spring
on the sewer line and I had to rent a 3" pump to keep up with
the water. The problem with this was that the pump would only run
about 3 1/2 hours before it ran out of fuel. So I slept in my car
Monday night to keep adding fuel to the thing, I can tell you I am
not 16 again and did not sleep very well.
Tuesday Don helped me run some sewer line to the
building - it was a lot easier with two people!. The only part
that was difficult was that the sewer line was 10' deep at the
road and I had them taper the sides in for about 50' off the road.
That left about 100' that was 8' deep and 2' wide that needed pipe
glued in place. What a scary scenario to have 8' of earth around
you that could collapse at any moment. I actually glued the pipe
up on the ground and lowered it in sections - but still Scary!

That is a lot of Pipe!
