The big rock

Now I'm wondering if maybe I took out too much concrete....The foundation at the corner is not straight; it bows out at an angle. Maybe the concrete was reinforcement for earthquake protection? Regardless, it was not properly put in, for example, with forms and then smoothed off.


I might stuff a rock right next to the concrete in the corner or show it to my landlord and offer to pay to have it fixed properly. But I really don't want concrete extending too far from the house because that's the sunniest spot.

I wasn't intending to dig too deep, but as I started digging out the soil, I struck a big rock. So I had to dig down and around it to get it out. It's on the left next to the pile of dirt. There are also a lot of roots left from the tree. So I'll need to cut those out.
