Gravel Day 1

Yep, it's raining.  Again.  And again.  Seems like it's gonna be this way for awhile which is making things go painfully slow.  But such is life...

First day of gravel placement is over, and if the rain stays away will be finished tomorrow.  In all, we had 10 truck loads this size dumped on site while the excavator was busy placing it.


We needed a total 175 tons of 57 3/4'' gravel to fill the big and deep garage box, and place about 4'' of gravel in the basement over the pipes.


Due to the amount of plumbing in the basement, it's making it really hard to maneuver the bobcat around to place the gravel.


That garage box was pretty darn deep, that's over 10 feet of self compacting gravel placed in there!


And this is how the basement ended up after day 1.
