Backhoe Time!

So one of our neighbors got a backhoe for a week and he told us he would help clear some of our land and see is we can dig a hole in the creek bed till we find water. So we got a bunch of clearing done, all the big piles of brush are no longer an eyesore so that is awesome. I even drove that huge machine for an hour or so while he took a break. It was so much fun. If I was in the city with that machine, I would have torn up so much, lol, but luckily for everyone else's sake I was out here in the mountains with nothing to destroy. After all that which was a full day Friday, on Saturday we started on the creek. Now the creek bed has 2 Huge Ass holes in it with no water yet, we are 10-15 feet down. We Have been busy for the last few days on top of all of that, We went out to the ranches and cut a cord and 1/2 of wood and loaded up the truck then I went to work and the kids came home and worked on fire wood all day. We are worn out. Back to the grind today on the cabin.

These are all me driving that beast. It was so much fun

This is the giant hole we dug

This is the really weird grey clay we found at the bottom of the hole
