That's how the guy in California died in his own house. The old mine shaft under the house colapsed and opened up a huge hole under his house.

Wow, I would never build in that area without doing some serious test boring after reading that!

[Damn True]

I will still take the job......lol

Bill likes a big dirt-hole.

lol bill yes minE is what i meant. i was at lunch trying to hurry haha. on the property there are **** loads of old irrigation pipes running thru there. see irrigation is free they pump it out of the columbia river since wenatchee is right on it. over the last 50+ yrs they kept adding more and more lines that spider web out in every direction, its going to be a huge project but im sure we will get it done

Usually where there's a mine, there's a large hill of dirt that was removed from the mine. I wonder how big the mine was. Mines are cool...as long as they are safe.

you know i never saw any large piles of dirt anywhere, becuase the house that is on the property now, used to sit right smack dab in the middle of the road that is there now so its hard to tell if there really is a mine there. the dirt could just be spread out thru the whole lot. so no idea untill we start digging. a back hoe is coming out monday to dig down and take some dirt samples. maybe i can talk them into digging the spot up lol

Before you dig, make sure to contact the outfit that comes out and marks all utilities for you. Here in NH it is called DIGSAFE. If you don't and you rip up a utility, guess who is paying the bill! Over the years I have ripped up many gas lines but in each situation DIGSAFE had mismarked them BUT they picked up the tab because I called them in before I dug. You would be suprised as to what could be on your property and still be active. Also, at least here, there is no charge for this service, you just have to wait a specified period of time from when you call them.

Am I the only one that was wondering what was in the garage? A 2001 Cavalier can be easily replaced, at least the guy didnt' lose a '71 Hemi cuda or something, .

Damn,

Seems like anywhere in the country I would want to go has it downfalls. Florida - sinkholes, Carolinas - hurricanes, California- earthquakes, Louisiana- are you kidding me?(katrina), Alaska- wildlife, midwest-tornados. As much as I complain I just I should consider myself lucky to live in Massachusetts. The only dangers here are TAXES AND DEMOCRATS.. Well occasional winter nor easters but that really isnt anything to worry about..

Come on True, you are the school teacher.....lol
A 50X50X100 hole would take 10000 cubic yards of concrete to fill.

Even with $65 per yard flow and fill, that is 650K. Then add 15%...I need that repair job....

they could put your toilet over it for a couple of weeks...
