Oh yes, I've received the building permit and passed my first inspection! - the plumbing and septic... Below you can see the pipes of the septic system under pressure, ready for the inspector.

This layer of very coarse gravel-y sand will draw water from the fresh concrete - and it fills in nicely around the plumbing...
A network of string lines assures that we'll have 4" of concrete. Now we're really getting close to pouring time. Next Mark will complete the metal reinforcement - wire mesh and rebar.
