We drilled for the two hitching posts - last project of today.
At the front of the house, I ran into the same scenario as at the back - about 20" of topsoil and then a hard rock-like layer in each of the four holes. Either the previous owner built a secret underground lair much larger than the house or this house is sitting on bedrock.
One of the key problems of living in a valley floor is that during an earthquake, a condition called Soil Liquefaction can occur - ground water mixes with the topsoil and creates a jello-like consistency.
