This area is packed fill.  So hard that such cracks have not 
appeared.  While digging the trenches for the sprinkler system, I hit the 
tracks of the equipment, so hard that even soaking did no good, only heavy 
pick work early in the morning.

I looked at the Zanoni weather this morning, today 105, Tues 106, Wed 105, 
Thur 101.
