"Well Digging" by Lumen Martin Winter on the second floor of the Kansas State Capitol. A well was a necessity for Kansas pioneers, particularly those on the high plains. The woman with a hoe offers a prayer for rain. The men dig deeper under a blazing sun as the diviner looks eagerly on.
One of 8 murals that are on the second floor of the capitol. Commissioned in 1976 and completed in 1978. Originally John Steuart Curry was going to do murals for the second floor rotunda but due to a dispute with legislature Curry left. The legislature then directed a new artist to "refer to" Curry's sketches for ideas on the new murals.

This shorebird pushes it's beak in deep to pull out "food". The line between too deep of water and dried up too much is not wide. These shorebirds seem to find the inland ponds easier to feed at that dealing with changing tides on the ocean.
Big trenches right up to our back fence. Volvo lorry taking away the earth - mostly quality garden soil.
Getting those perennials in the ground before it gets too cold.... (Self-portrait for Sept. 19, 2008.)
During a brief weather opportunity, avalanche crews undertook control work on Hwy 37A from American Creek to Big Canyon.
The Canyon Slide path, had a run of 4 kilometres in length, with a fall of 2000 metres.
The control work produced an avalanche which was 800 metres wide by 400 metres long, averaging 8 metres deep.
The deepest point of avalanche deposit was approximately 17 metres deep.

Three helpers digging a basement at the Congregational Church in 1918. The church, built in 1886, was located at the SW corner of Streetsboro (303) and Brecksville (21) Roads, and was torn down in 1953.
After a successful dig we reached the top of a virgin 20ft pit, where we had to break ledge to get through
This is the way to dig razor clams, on one knee, using a clam shovel. It's much easier on your back than a clam gun but you have to act fast with the shovel. I also recommend hip boots or just plain old shoes. Mid-calf boots fill up with water when a sneaker wave comes in.
The razor clams grow to about 5 or 6 inches on the Washington coast. The farther north, the colder the water, the bigger the clams.

This isn't your average classroom. Instead of learning under fluorescent lights, students in WSU Assistant Professor Krysta Ryzewski's Archaeological Field Methods course are scurrying about in the vast shadow of Detroit's iconic Michigan Central Station, unearthing relics of the city's past.

Digging on a late dump. The very top layer dated from May 1940. Labels on the bottles had rotted away, but for some reason other paper and card items were well preserved. We were pulling newspapers out with headlines about hitler and the nazis! For such a late tip it was quite interesting. Still can't beat a good earlier tip though lol

Fire often smolders deep in the duff layers, so firefighters have to dig deep to ensure it is out cold.

When not playing in the waves, Q liked to relax by digging holes. We also did some metal-detecting and found a giant rusty metal hoop earring and a bottlecap. (yay, treasure!)
We have been taking the dogs up to the wild end of Tilgate park for walkies.
