My "Sanford & Son" scrap pile had to be replaced by a leach field. YES, more tree and stump removal...








With the cost of stone delivery going through roof these days, it was actually much cheaper, and easier, to go with a chamber system instead...








The prettiest it'll ever be...




Speed levelers ensure that all 3 trenches are used equally...


150 feet of trenches




I just need to back-fill...
