Good morning!!!!

Well... on my plumbing...the guys got everything ID'd and uncovered.

Looks like I need a whole new system. Field area, lines, tank. They are now trying to plot out a new field.

Is disappointing, timing and what not. Add another story to an Old House saga.

Man, the politics and regulations are ---- ugh.

Hope all continue to have a great day!

I'm adding a new system down at our farm. The original system was installed in the early 70's. I'm flipping it to the opposite side of the house; 1500 gal tank and lines for 5 bedrooms. Total cost here... 5K. Brand new. Permit was $525.00 and that includes a new well also. Oh... and $800 bucks for the engineer.

A very chilly day with some stiff breezes which made it a very cold day
Tonight's low about 20...but I see single digit lows in the near future...

My mound system was $12k nine years ago, and it’s only what they call a one foot mound, which is actually three feet tall.

Well, Howdy NEIGHBOR

Start driving, it should be ready late Wednesday morning, early afternoon.

Lol.

Yeah.... no one does that kind of business anymore around here. You need permits, surveys, inspections and licensed contractors just to plot out a field. You wanna dig a trench...yeah....not gonna happen. They keep pump records here.

If they (county) didn’t know where it was I would have just done it without them, if it was just the drain field. Replacing tank makes it more difficult.

My country is the strictest in the state when it comes to systems. In the STATE.

Could not find proper contours today. We cannot move dirt to level an area.

Is that whacked out or what?

Wow... turns out we have perfect soil and drainage.

Loudoun, Fairfax, PG? What is your zoning? Have you looked up your soil types on the US Soil Survey?

Good morning! , missed a few days, lots to get caught up on.....

My son did a video of the Christmas lights at his house (green and white lights) and our cottage (red and white lights). Here is a link:

Our 2020 Christmas Lights! Merry Christmas Everyone! - YouTube

Needed to do some errands this morning..... spent a lot of time waiting in lines.... 45 minutes at Wally World (at 6:10 am), 30 minutes in line at the PO, 15 minutes in line at the bank.... I am tired of waiting in line..... 5 hours of the day gone already....

I have had intermittent shop time, going out there right now.... I will catch up later!

Nice job on the lights!!

I’ve been known to drive to Paradise for lunch, so that isn’t out of the realm of possibility.

But still at work, 12 hrs today, need to knock off soon.
