I’ve been digging myself into a hole. It’s behind our house, and it’s about five feet deep now, but I'm not sure it's the kind of deep work that I want to be doing. Before buying this house, we knew the retaining wall would have to be replaced. A slice of roof connects the retaining wall to the back wall of the house, presumably to keep a glacier from forming there. That roof also braces the retaining wall off the back of the house, which is bad, according to the engineer that looked at it. The house is on a piling foundation, and the pilings probably don't go very deep judging by how rocky it is here. The engineer said something about the house falling down the hill someday, so we used his analysis to talk the price down $45,000.
