Update 02-Sep-04: Here is the road on a rainy day. Even though the water puddles a bit it is no problem on the areas covered with road stone, since these stones act almost as good as a paved road. The puddles don't get much bigger than this and then the water runs off. (02-Sep-04)dozerSep 28, 2011

Update 16-Aug-04: The shape of the road is now really bad, as it is U shaped. The water cannot run off, but puddles in some spots in and around the middle of the road.dozerSep 28, 2011

Update 16-Aug-04: Had the end of the road blocked off with old coconut stumps. (24-Aug-04)dozerSep 28, 2011

Update 16-Aug-04: Here is the tractor laying out the stone. This is great material, even when wet it maintains its shape.dozerSep 28, 2011

Update 16-Aug-04: As a temporary fix, I'm having road stone put down. (20-Aug-04)dozerSep 28, 2011

Update 16-Aug-04: All the finished houses on the right side of the road now have a problem. No only was the road taken down after the houses were built, but slope of the road does not now allow the water to run. (06-26-04)dozerSep 28, 2011

Update 16-Aug-04: The 'too low house man' hired a tractor today to bring the road down. In sorting out his problem he may well be on the way to creating problems for all of the other inhabitants. (01-Jan-04)dozerSep 28, 2011

I wanted to contrast the previous road to what everyone would really like to see. This land is subdivided and a concrete entry road has been poured to a 20 centimeter depth. There is also associated drainage and the electric is already setup, all prior to any building started. Now, the downside. This land, which is in the same area as the cool thai house plot, is 2 1/2 times more expensive, and the minimum lot size is 1 rai (at 2.5 million Baht)! So, you can find perfection but you must pay the price! (29-Jul-04)dozerSep 28, 2011

Another shot of the tragic 'too low' house. This is the entry after 10 minutes of rain, it is a lake. The developer wants to lower the entire road which would just make everyone have a problem, will be interesting to see how it 'washes out'. Will keep updates posted here.dozerSep 28, 2011

A current shot of the fixed road with the cool thai house at the end on the left. The dirt used is a dirt and small stone mix which is used mainly for roads. It gets real hard and will not turn to mud when water sits on it. One last thing which needs to eventually done with the road is to shape it as rounded, which can't be done as long as the aluminum fence is run along the far right side of the road.

This is the street shot looking from the cool thai house towards the main entry road. Only thing really to note here is the real ugly aluminum fence on the left which is actually in the main road and prevents the road from being properly shaped.dozerSep 28, 2011

Finally, the road is what I would call fixed! One cardinal lesson for all who build houses is never skimp on fill dirt, one thing which can't be fixed is a house below street level. Note the level of the house on the left is about 60 cm. or more below street level. (12-Jun-04)dozerSep 28, 2011
