OK, so while I wait to unload some real estate in this scorching hot market so I can buy a new machine, I have to settle for occasionally renting a machine to slowly chip away at some of the work I want to do around the new-to-us property.
This is an L35 I've rented a couple of times - when I finish the job I actually rent it for, I spend the remainder of the day chipping away at a bank in front of the garage that needs to come out so we actually have enough room to get the vehicles in and out a little easier. It takes a while digging with the 12" bucket, but there's a mix of sandy dirt and decomposed granite, so the smaller bucket is necessary to deal with the rock. I have a full size New Holland TLB reserved for Labor Day weekend to hopefully finish the job. Before that, I've got some fellas coming out to take down 3 trees that are up on the bank that I don't want to deal with because of their proximity to the house.
So here are some shots of the dig out in front of the garage:
