It's an exterior wall, poured concrete.

Should i expect any problems from drilling 2-3 inches into my foundation
to put in some anchor bolts? Drainage on that side of the house is quite
good.

Lots of info here on the 'problems' you will have trying to drill
into concrete made with aggregate. With a good drill and a good bit,
you can do it.

Oh, I'm not too concerned about being able to make the holes. More
concerned about any problems I might *create* by doing so.
