I spent my Memorial Day weekend digging a 500 ft ditch to the road so I can pump out the unfinished pond without flooding the neighbors fields.

In these pic's you can also see the trash pump I pimped out with a 50 gallon tank so it can run for a few days straight.

I'm trying to save a bit of fuel by not having the pump suck the water up hill the whole time by using a truck tire inner tube to keep the suction end of the hose only 1 ft below water level.
