Photos for posterity: sewer system

Herself and I overheard our 2nd oldest girl say to our eldest in a loud whisper one night right after we put them to bed several years ago: "Let's talk about Poop!" That is what today's blog is about; or rather, how to get it from my shed to where it better belongs: the septic system.

This blog posting is pretty much for my interest only; I often take pictures of things I do that I may some day want to know where I buried them, placed them, etc, but sometimes it is difficult to find.   Blogspot seems about the most stable technology I have in my life right now, as Jeremy said something about Google folding up Picasa...(heartbreaking for me, if correct).

These are photos of me and my new friend Jim (local dirt/sewer guy) connecting the shed to the septic tank.  This early but very warm (80's) and windy spring of 2012 seems a good time to connect the two.

Below is a rare shot that would shock the locals.  I bet this is a very unique photo of Jim.  If you look closely, you can clearly see that he does NOT have a cigarette hanging out of his mouth.  I was surprised to see that in this photo, as I can honestly say that I never noticed him without him having one in his mouth the whole two hours he was at my house.  An interesting side note was that even after paying attention for a while, I never did actually see him light one. Until I saw this photo, I was convinced that it was always the same one.

Below:  I hand dug this for about 30' from the shed because I knew there was a soft water line (shown as H2O) going to the Valdois' house, and an electrical supply at about 20' from shed wall.
