    I understand you have a lot of followers and a lot of questions and you probably won’t answer this one but I’m not understanding the peanuts for the septic system. I realize that where you are and where I am at two different geographical places and weather is 100% different but if you could, just explain a little bit about the peanut. I don’t grasp that concept. I’ve never heard of that up here in New England.

    If you come across future projects and owners aren't sure where pipes or waterlines are you should use the old water divine test with piece of a clothes hanger wire in both hands and walk the are till they cross or move away from each other. Saves you $$$ to know where they are to not bust them.
