Re: Happy New Year- now David's gravel

They are very old and rusted. No way to empty the water without damaging the drums.

Yep, I know the force of ma nature!.... I seen a wall of water coming out of
the mountains in Arizona when I was a kid.. scared the heck out of me!

So why didn't you spill out the water to move the barrels and then just
refill them?

Um, no...well some of it we can but much of it is buried in muck or in the
creek or so badly spread out that there is no way to retrieve it. It's
kind
of funny actually. Some of it has made humps like speed bumps that goes
for
15 feet or so or like waves. One of my gh's has very small pea gravel and
the larger gravel from the road replaced the pea inside and the pea gravel
outside.

You can't believe the force of that water. It moved 50 gallon drums full
of
water that was holding up tables and moved them outside the gh. That's
350
pounds. It took four of us to move them back. Try and slide 350 pounds
through mud and rock sometime.
