I never want to shovel gravel again in my life.
Today we as a family put in the foundation drain. Since we have piles of dirt around the perimeter of the house, there was no way to get a tractor around the house to dump gravel. This meant, we shoveled 5 gallon buckets of gravel...and dumped them on the 4" foundation drain pipe.
Based on my calculations we shoveled 300 buckets full.
Which is 15,000 pounds.
Which is about 2/3 of a dump truck full.
Scott carried ev ery single bucket.
It took us 6 full hours. It was so much work. So so so much work. We are pooped.

Elevation
Back to the county to get a revision on our elevation. We were going to be a little "low" in the ground, so I had to get permission to raise our TOW (foundation height). All stamped...ready to continue.
