There's a Hole in My Bucket.....uh Yard!

This weekend we tackled the sink hole in the backyard that we had discovered about a week ago. It turns out the sinkhole wasn't little at all! In fact it was the old septic bed that had rusted through causing a hole 6X4 feet wide and 4 feet deep to form. The only thing nnot causing a massive cave-in to have occurred earlier was about 3 inches of topsoil and some grass!! The hole was filled with rusted and jagged metal that I'm sure would've caused serious injury had someone fallen in. Thank goodness we won't have to worry about that!
We contacted a gravel company and had 4 yards of pea gravel delivered on Sunday and set to work filling in the septic tank. Need I say that Sunday was like the hottest day we've had all summer! Anyways, after much sweating the deed was done! I'm just thankful no one was hurt and that the yard is again safe for the little ones. Here's a couple pics. The actual magnitude of the pit is a bit deceiving in the picture because we only opened a portion of the pit and then used long rakes to fill in to the ends.

Our "hole"! Looks small but oh no!

A "bit" of gravel for our pit!
