The concrete guy is coming in a week to pour
the slab plus aprons for our new garage.
So I'm trying to get ready for him.
The electrical inspector told me I can add
another 100 amp service to the garage off
the existing meter socket. Actually he
suggested I do it that way and go
underground with direct bury wire.
Nice. So I spent a few hours cutting open
the blacktop along side the house then
digging a 20' trench for the wire. The
concrete man will trench it from the
blacktop onward.
It was hard work but cool today. Back up in
the high 80s tomorrow. So I stayed at it and
got the job done.
I think he said because it will be surfaced
with concrete I only had to go 12".
But I didn't remember how deep he said and
stopped digging at 20"
A couple of ibuprofin and half a glass of
Merlot at dinner. I'll sleep well tonight.
I do have to give thanks that I can still do
this kind of work if need be. I don't love
it but I can.
I'll be 65 on Wednesday.
