So again we get the neighbors out worrying :) and for good reason! My truck of dirt came, very late. The worker that was in charge of it overloaded it too because the second, the very second it touched the grass. It sunk DEEP into our yard and the irrigation control box for our property. I immediately had my Mother In Law call my Father In Law to bring the tow truck. As soon as we saw the pool of water under the wheel where the irrigation box used to be... we called again and told him to hury.
Good to have a landscaper in the family... Even better to have a wrecker operator! Grandpa to the rescue screamed the kids!
These pictures arn't quite as good as they could've been... I'm actually standing in a hole here caused by the hitch on the back of the huge dirt filled truck. It tore up quite a bit of lawn. You might be able to see in this picture the broken sidewalk as well. Our neighbors lawn was flooded and some sand washed out from under the turf causing their perfect lawn to sink half a foot.
So Brent will be out tomorrow along with some city guys to fix everything. Looks like I'm not going to make it to the Camp Fire leadership classes :( Exciting week to say the least.

Oh man what a mess. At least you had family to call on, otherwise think of the cost. Is the guy who overloaded the truck going to do anything about the damage or are you stuff with fixing it yourself?
luckily they'll be fixing at least the expensive to repair stuff... sidewalk, plumming
