I am sorry but all I see is a pile of rubble at the bottom of the hillside. I hope you have sunk some seriously deep pylons or something to support this hillside monster?
Geotech and engineering was all done before we started. The photos do kind of highlight a big pile of slash and fill dirt that is not intended to be there permanently.I am sorry but all I see is a pile of rubble at the bottom of the hillside.

Yes, also doing hill stabilization through targeted planting and specie selection. This was also a minimally disturbed site with native older root systems. It's a worry for me; I hope it's enough. I think so, the soil types and movement history support minimal future movement.I hope you have sunk some seriously deep pylons or something to support this hillside monster?
Yes on vents, no on reflection. Snow season? Going with high COP air to water heat pump, and solar collector with hydronic radiant instead for HVAC, so it makes up for the slightly suboptimal placement.hidden reflective material to bounce heat back down toward the people during snow season, and will install some sort of remotely controlled high wall vents to passively exhaust that heat in summer.
Hmm, true, I do need to fit in ourMaster bath sink counter could be made a lot wider to hold more girl-stuff.
I know that feel. We're waiting on PGE.gawd damn we're still trying to get the damn permit lol. fucking los angeles.
Halloween orange it is!
Wow, I am your fan!
Maybe just float some net-pens in that lake close by shore and raise baby trout fry in them (ca$h crop), completely avoiding costs of pipelines, pumps, electricity, cementing-in pools on your land, etc.
Right here in my home area there was a "mariculture" company that profited doing exactly that, ... they grew stuff in pens floating in the ocean outside the surf line offshore Hendry's Beach.
Piping cost=$0.
Electricity cost=$0.
Cost for circulating pumps=$0.
Maintenance cost =near $0.
Public image = HIGH because it LOOKS green, so everybody loves you.
Maybe some future day some bozo bureaucrat in your county will ask you to pay for a permit to do that, or maybe they'll continue bovinely chewing their cud. Just stay out of boating areas and they may never even know.
All you gotta do is boat out there and toss some feed into the floating net-pens suspended in the ocean, with sides held afloat by some "pool noodles." That's easy as pie.
Easily scoop out your harvest with a pole-mounted net and sell into the ravenous Japanese market, black hole of insatiable demand (I used to sell them custom surfboards by the hundreds, other guys here still sell them roe/caviar and it's WORTH their TIME, big time. B I G T I M E. They go diving 3 days a week and earn more than almost ALL the Wall Street Gordon Geckos, rest of time eat sleep party with the surpassingly bodacious college babes.
You might earn $ that way too? Float some pens on that lake, send your wife out there daily to toss some trout fry in there (she's worth more than $0.01), and spend 2 hours studying up on what to do next. Keep an eye on it from your spectacular picture window!
(Obviously, I'm just playing around here.)
