Everyone watching mike dig out a feature.

A man rests, after digging a trench in central Yantai

All species work harder for food during the Yellowstone winter--except wolves.

He seemed to be enjoying himself, digging a huge hole in the sand, and why not!

Uncovered a very large silver maple root, right in the corner where I'd planned to plant a red twig dogwood. Rethinking plan; consulting with county rain garden maven (who happens to be our neighbor).

 

Installing a rain garden at the bungalow. First step: dig out ~9 inches of soil in the ~100 sq ft garden bed. 6 inches of that will be replaced (with compost + soil, then a layer of mulch).

The Outer Banks is a sanctuary for wildlife. The day we spent on the beach, we were surrounded by numerous birds who diligently searched for food. These sanderlings were so tiny that they were afraid of even the slowest waves but had to be brave enough to jump in and start digging as soon as the waves receded. It was one of the cutest things to watch.

Gotta love this. I know I did.

NorthWood volunteers Mark and Ed dig a ditch which will later form the foundation for the pillars of a new school gate at Nam Mon Primary School 1.

This shovel has been at this monument for some time - why?

I seem to be spending way too much time in graveyards...

I love the way he looks so guilty.

The overcast and unappealing light was not a surprise on my return trip from Oregon via Seattle in March. In fact, I barely shot a thing while waiting for the eastbound Empire Builder at King Street Station but the kid in me still has a hard time passing up heavy equipment at work. (3-10-2015)

So glad my teens still like to play in the dirt.

Just a few bottles from the '30s I dug up recently. The Guelph 5¢ G.B.E. quart has a chip and some pings along the top etc but from what I gather this bottle is rare so I'm keeping it. The rest of the bottles are okay and are now soaking in soapy water.

What the working navvy will be wearing this summer.

Depending on the conditions, it's possible to paddle into broken ice but it's not without risk to paddle or canoe. When the water temperature is at freezing, and the air temperature is below, ice will inevitably form on both the hull of the canoe and paddles. The added weight affects the performance of both (detrimentally) as the canoe can gain an extra 20-50 lbs and sit lower in the water. Paddles get heavy, slippery and are harder to use.

After a week of extreme mud and mess, the footings have been excavated.

Seems there's enough clay to open a pottery!

Roll on Monday when the concrete arrives.

 

News Flash!

While the gale has been blowing, the rain torrential and the night as black as coal, my dog fell down the newly dug footings for our extension.

 

Down into a huge water filled trench of mud and clay.

Guesse who had to scramble in to lift her out??? Not my husband!

The poor wee dog was trembling and up to her belly in freezing water. Both dog and I were in dire need of a hot bath and sympathy!!

Noah and Cody dug for hours. I like the depth of field here...comes from shooting with my telephoto lens from my viewpoint flat on my belly on a beach blanket!
