I was going to saw cut the channel last night but we got into a fight about it last night. It was kind of late after we got back from cub scouts and the boy's bedroom is right above it.

Its a small ranch house anyways, 24x36.

I guess they call them that because the French invented the sewer system and drainage designs!

That is what I would like to do but I have like 70 yards to go to get to the road ditch and maybe enough elevation drop. That's if I started at the bottom of the foundation.
