Martin Moves Muck

Last weekend was a pretty exciting one for me and one which took me back to my childhood days in Wales when our gang would build roads in the dirt and drive our Dinky toys over them. Ben had been using an excavator, loaned to him by a friend, to put a drainage ditch down the length of his property. He also needed some help in moving earth from one place to another so it could be screened for topsoil. I was able to try out the excavator, which was great fun, and then use his tractor to move earth after Ben had excavated it. Wow! It was one of the most enjoyable periods of time I've had for a good while. You can see some pics below. We moved a lot of muck!
