Martin and I staked out where the leach field and septic tank will be going.
Martin had the pleasure of digging up the sod, top soil, and sub soil from the leach field with very little help from me.
The plan is to use the sand that is under the top soil and sub soil for making concrete for the slabs in the basement and barn.
Once Martin reached sand, he could use the back hoe to dig. However, our little back hoe isn't good at moving dirt to the top of a pile out of a hole. So Martin is dragging the sand to the edge of the leach field and then shoveling it into a pile out of the leach field.
In the photo above, Martin needed to do a small repair to the back hoe.
