Day 27 (Tues., 6/2)
The concrete had to cure for three days, so there wasn't much happening on
Monday other than taking the forms down.
Today they cleaned up the foundation, placed the drain field around it, and
back filled with the dirt that was still piled up out front. It's starting
to look like this might actually be something.
Unfortunately, when they tried to connect the new perf pipe into the existing
pipe around the rest of the house they discovered the old pipe is completely
filled with debris. It's packed in so tight that there's no way to flush
it out, so when everything else is done I get to dig up the old pipe
and replace it with the stuff you see here.
