Backhoes Rock!!

Well, we have (I use the word we very loosely) been digging and breaking up concrete and hauling off rocks in our yard for a couple of weekends now, and we finally broke down and asked for help from a friend (a very NICE friend) with a backhoe. WOW, WOW, WOW!!! He brought that thing into our yard and it just went to town. He was able to pull up the sidewalk in literally minutes. I was sooo excited!! It has been that the demo and excavation was going to take longer than the rebuild. Now we can get busy on building the kids playground, preparing our garden beds and building our chicken coop. I am having a hard time staying focussed on our regular days because Im so antsy to get out there and start working on it. Trust me, its a BIG change from a sledgehammer, shovel and a wheelbarrow to a big backhoe!
