Pictures of the backhoe digging it. Some of us are machinery junkies!

Better luck with keeping the hoe going.

I'll try to get some pictures of digging up this weekend (two people are on vacation this week so my case load is jam packed). Keeping my fingers crossed it is fixed for good this time.

Funny thing is it took a few extra weeks as I accidently broke something while trying to fix the original problem. So we had to weld something together...not the safest operation. Must have been funny to see. My dad welding, well I'm standing next to him with a hose and fire extinguisher, looking away from the unit waiting to hear him tell me we caught it on fire.

But it ran well this weekend got about 7 hours of work done this previous weekend and will try to do about 10 more coming up this weekend.

It held water really well last time it rained and I haven't sealed any of it yet so hopefully that is good sign, but I have it all pumped out so as long as it doesn't rain a lot this weekend I should be able to get in there, instead of just working from the periphery.

This is something I should know, but not sure. What kind of machine is the backhoe---Case Cat or what.
