Up early, drinking my coffee.

Get over there by 8 am, get another 3 hours on the machine and then take it back.  I was particularly pleased at how fast the trenching went yesterday, even with tons of thick roots, that machine just cut right through them.  There were no hard spots, there are hardly any rocks in the soil at all. It's thick clay after you get down so far, to, that's what really gets difficult when digging out by hand.  

Anyway, it allowed me to do other things of which i didn't know i would have time to do.  

People just indiscriminately throwing bags of trash all over the place. The trash cans - they are small - are filling up quickly now so instead of people stacking up overflow neatly? They just chuck a bag in the vicinity of the can.  This problem will be eliminated as soon as they get the regular cans there - but that could be weeks down the road.  I dunno, but if I catch the people doing it, I will most certainly say something to them about it.  It's not like the trash is sitting there like that for days and days.

It's overnight at most - by the time I get back over there in other words.  A lot of these guys are young.  They probably have a good work ethic considering the type of work they are doing and the hours theyput in, but that apparently doesn't always translate over into tidiness and respecting other people's property.  

Oh well, the price to pay to get these people in there, I guess, I just pick it up and move along.  Not much else you can do about it.  

Well, I best get this entry done and get over there. I have more than doubled the size of the HipCamp lot I want to make - simply because I have the time with the machine to do so. I think I'll put either 4 or 6 spots in there and call it a day.  I just haven't quite figured out how I want to arrange it, but that's okay, I don't have to figure that out today, I just need to get the area cleared.  Money left on the table is how I'm looking at it, with the only real thing I have to run out there being electricity, I see no downside to trying this.  It'll just motivate me more to get the shed done.  And I'd like to get some of the piping done today, at least, it's supposed to rain tomorrow.  

We're in the 60% range of thunderstorms early tomorrow morning.  I hope it doesn't happen, working in a wet trench won't be fun. I can't leave those open forever, it's a hazard even with the yellow caution tape, I want to get most of it done, at least to the shed. The shed itself can have some open areas around the rear of it, but the idea of having 140 feet of open trench like that? No thanks.  I'll need to take a look at the fittings I bought last week and see if there are the right ones. 

I know I'll need an adapter at the very least. I don't know why they ran PVC SCH40 underground for the sewer in the rear portion.  It's far enough underground that any weight going over top of it is negligible in terms of risk of collapse.  They put the pipe I am putting in place of it in the streets all the time, I know this for a fact for I delivered the stuff for almost 12 years. Sch40 is expensive pipe is what I am referring to, much more expensive than the actual, designated sewer pipe.  I guess it will last a long time! But so will the SDR35, they also run the stuff to your house. 

Well, make another cup of joe and go.

G'day.
