Okay. More on my septic drain field. Had the truck come and pump the tank. It was over full of solids from my not having it pumped for last 6 yrs. Driver said that left solids get around baffle and flow out my drain field and plug it. He did an excellent job of rinsing and completely draining my 1000 gal. tank. So I now have about a month to figure out what to do. My drain field tile is only covered with about 4" dirt. Some places maybe 6" dirt. He said not only are holes in pipe plugged but also the pores in the gravel or whatever type media they used back in the day are probably also plugged. There is just wife and I living in this house anymore so not to much water use. Do you think I could make a 20" long drill bit and drill through the 4" cover dirt, right through top and bottom of 4" tile and then down through gravel?

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
