[back lane culvert repair]

Today we did some manual repair on the culvert under the back lane that is the main entrance to my house. Since the director was unwilling to spend any money on the project we took it upon ourselves to do the work by hand. We dug out the old culvert the old fashioned way, with hand tools and leverage. We will need some more stone to complete the job properly. We'll also need to spend more time digging out upstream and downstream to make sure our pipes don't get clogged up with dirt. But at least for now, the drove down the back lane will be a little smoother.
