Septic City Begins: Diggers Have Arrived

Before the Mess
Well, the guys have arrived and all is well so far, as it looks like a warm but sunny day.  Rodger dropped off his steam shovel, and we are scheduled to have the tank pumped around noon, the new tank will arrive around 1:00, bd set, and then it's only a matter of digging trenches for the pipes and leech field, filling it in with stone, then dirt, and then having the lawn care guy come in with his grass seed sprayer, which supposedly quickens the time of your grasses growth.  Hopefully, the yard will be useable and decent looking by the end of July when the family starts arriving.

So far, no glitches and they hope to have it done by this evening; the tank is laid, covered and connected and the ditches are dug so they are laying the PVC pipes, then have to fill the ditches and the leech field with stones, cover it, then they are done till tomorrow when the health department checks that's it's working properly and the electricity for the pump is installed.  Then the lawn is leveled, and we have a guy come in, if he's not to expensive, and have the lawn seed with a special gun, of grass seed an fertilizer, which supposedly grows amazingly quick.
Ready to Go
