And here is the result. Ahh, my tractor and a whole foundation to dig... too bad I didn't do it. I thought it might make a good picture though /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif. A Cat 953 is responsible. I did grab some loose spoil in the corner and dig it out. So now I can say that I did, "Help with the excavation."

And one last picture near a pile of dirt, looking to the North/West.

That's a great photo Peter. I'd show that to my non-tractor friends and let them think whatever they want. How long ago was all this? If all goes well I'll be able to post a photo like that in a year or two.

Nice photos. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif I was going to ask why the tractor is so clean after all that digging. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

Rob,

These pictures were taken this past weekend. My wife tells me that footers were poured today. I can't help but wonder how long it would take to dig a hole this big with my tractor... Might be a lot of fun for the first week /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif. Might be a good excuse to get that toothbar!

After the foundation in place looks like your going to have a grand time back filling.
Looks like alot of sq footage. /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif

Keep takeing those pictures and start a scape book,for in years to come you can reflect back.

You shouldn't have told about the CAT. I, for one, would have believed you did that with your NH. Three-day weekend......no hill for a climber at all!!!

Your new place looks nothing but nice. Nice hills, nice fields, nice background. Looks like you chose wisely. Well done.
