Unfortunately I'm not getting to far. The backhoe is continuing to have issues and not running at the moment. I'm glad my pops let me borrow it, but man what a pain it has been. So basically have been doing small jobs, moving more brush and collecting stones for rip rap. Hoping to get it running soon....but I actually broke something else while I was working on fixing it...oppps
I wouldn't be surprised if the soil is acid, as we have a lot of pines, and the ground water is on the acidic side. I do a lot with aquariums so I can easily do the testing should be easy when the time comes.
The pond "current hole in the ground" is actually filled to the brim right now as we got a couple inches of rain last night. I haven't sealed any of it but so far this spring it has held water very well. Pumping it out as we speak. Love the granite pun :-).
