So I'm on the south side of my house and a get a signal - starting digging and get about 7 inches down and hit what looks like a curved terra cotta roofing tile. Now this is Indiana and those aren't used here for roofing. But I wonder now about tiles in the septic finger system. I've never seen what a finger system looks like, but I know they are built with 'tiles'. Is 7 inches too shallow to hit a finger system? If I am way off base about this being part of the finger system, then I'm going to go back out and dig it up. Can't figure out what would be that thick (3/4") and made of terra cotta here on old farm land. Plus, can't forget the fact that I was digging a target I never got to.
