Kenmore required us to put in a big giant manhole when we connected to the sewer.  Think I am kidding?  Here is the hole from Gigi’s future bedroom window:

You see, it is deeper, longer and wider than a car, and those are real men standing there, just for scale.  And just so you know, the hole is in the middle of the neighbor’s driveway, so they had no access to their house while the hole was being dug and the manhole installed.  Here is another view from the driveway:

Huge giant hole.  Think our neighbors love us yet?  I have to say, they have all been extremely tolerant and kind as we have been going through the house building process.  I also have to say that the guys from Bayshore, the gentlemen who are doing the work here, are incredible men, capable, flexible and reasonable.  The hole was filled in after five days’ time and the driveway has been given back to our neighbor, new gravel and all, and our yard was re-graded and readied for a lawn.  Yahoo!  Next week they will be back to pour our concrete driveways, porches, and back step.  Closer and closer to the finish…
