    I remember him saying there wasn't one but the angle of the photo makes it look much lower than the surrounding dirt.

    LOL. It's hard to explain things in layman's terms sometimes but backfilled and top of slab at top of form is pretty easy to visualize.

    I like the nooks and crannies, especially in small sized house. Otherwise, you could theoretically stand at one end of the house and have a straight shot view to somebody at the other end, depending upon the walls. That means no privacy. However, will this lead to a few valleys in the roof line?
