I usually don't take pictures of vehicles and such but I thought the snow made for a pretty good background so I figured I would give it a shot.
A backhoe breaks apart secant pile guide walls used to help keep pile casings aligned properly. This is being done to allow backfilling and grading ahead of the 2014 holiday work moratorium.

This picture of a tree being torn up, a tree that I've looked at every day for the past three years, it's a bit weird.
This backhoe was my grandfather's constant companion when I was growing up. It didn't just dig holes; it hauled things, it plowed driveways, it lifted people up to do things up high, and it would almost have been appropriate to have buried it with him. But farmers never wast things, and that would have been a waste he'd never have approved of. So we had a Tonka toy stand-in. This has gone to a new farmer's home, to keep on trucking for another family. I'll miss it, but it's good to know it'll be doing what it was intended to do. I think that's how Grampa would feel too.
