[Cob] Foundation trenches

[Amanda Peck]

Yes, it would have.

But the geology in the area is pretty variable.  Even the ground on my 
property is all over the place.  No idea what it's going to be like in the 
two places up the hill where I may put buildings.  Just about anything from 
Karst formation to three or four feet of silt.
