[QUOTE="Fat Boss, post: 16686173, member: 122645"] I've taken some more pictures as the backyard has evolved. One thing I wanted to do was bury the main water line coming down the hill out of sight and under the retaining wall. Here's what it looked like to begin with, and my landscape guy doing the digging: [IMG]https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.ford-trucks.com-vbulletin/2000x2000/80-backyard_project_9_13a42c4beb90407694e173717f58f1137ab1a6f1.jpg[/IMG] For some reason they pussed out when they built the wall or more likely later ran the pipe down the hill. The house has been here fifty years, so who knows. [IMG]https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.ford-trucks.com-vbulletin/1078x814/80-backyard_project_6_392327574a57a788a8de56082ef8042cb883916d.jpg[/IMG] That pipe is now buried and unseen, and a poor man's fire hydrant added. It's outstanding to use a true 1" golf course hose to water the backyard in about 2 mins. The cable was put through there somewhere along the line when that was in the little pump house. [IMG]https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.ford-trucks.com-vbulletin/1078x813/80-backyard_project_7_b01f4fe4808158c14a0fd6d1ba68aa07db427c5d.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.ford-trucks.com-vbulletin/1078x1442/80-backyard_project_5_212b7c72826dd8f0cbe26d0b95333e438e19417b.jpg[/IMG] Next up is putting in about 650 sq/ft of pavers and some lawn. The forms are in place for the concrete work, including the steps down to the small patio made of pavers, and a long sidewalk along the back of the house over the above piping. The big dirt square will be a small lawn for Sterling Archer to destroy.
