After removing the top soil layers of various quality of peat were available for digging. First by hand and later with steam powered engines.
Some photos I just like to share with you even though they aren't "perfect." I thought this was a funny one. The grizzlies in Denali don't have fish to eat, so they dig for squirrels sometimes. These cubs were really serious about having a little meat in their diet, and the dirt was flying ! I posted photos/movie of the catch a few months ago....
They're digging up Talbot Road to lay tram tracks but they're already there .... obliterated two generations ago!
Spent the day chiselling chunks of wayward concrete from beneath the fence, chopping up the cement base exposed when the flags were lifted, gathering up the gravel from the troughs either side of the garden and digging soil that backs up against the breeze block pen.
It's donkey work, but it will open things up. The garden is shaping up nicely.
It is not called Cnoc na Lion (Hill of the Nets) without reason and I have unearthed evidence of its past use. Bits of chain, a boathook head, a rudder pintle, a 1940 penny and the mandatory teaspoon.....
Inspired by my work as an archaeologist on Rapa Nui / Easter Island

The traffic cone assures that drivers through the cemetery will not accidentally run into the concrete vault.
On February 3, 2011, after one of the worst snow storms to ever hit the area subsided, two of my favorite neighbors dig out.
A Montreal winter sport, digging yourself out of your parking spot. Cool thing is you get to dig one in when you come back!

On 7th January 17 people started digging on the site next to Carter's House at the entrance to the Valley of the Kings. They are involved in the important task of preserving the tombs in the Theban Necropolis. An exact facsimile of the tomb of Tutankhamun will open to visitors next spring.
The project has been funded by Factum Foundation.

I went back to the car to change lenses and when I was about to go back I was taken back by the beauty of this view.
There were hundreds of folks out there digging for razor clams and we all saw this... It was quite incredible!
Student volunteers from the University of North Texas Alpha Phi Omega service fraternity got back to nature at Audubon’s newest center, the Dogwood Canyon Audubon Center at Cedar Hill (20 minutes southwest of Dallas and slated to open in late 2011). Volunteers picked up trash, removed invasive species, dug stumps from the middle of the center’s first hiking trail, and shifted piles of woody brush and fallen trees to widen the trail for hikers.
Two projects in one! My instant picture project and my chinese lantern project. This one is still hanging on and in fact is digging a little hole where the wind blows it around. If we get much more snow it will be buried however.
For the Now You Digging Deeper workshop. Playing around with props! An umbrella on a cold rainy day.

I know, I know. I just couldn't resist the title... He's ready to protect that gold, too, ya Varmint!! Little Jimmy Dock.
He lives in this old house now. There's been a few changes, but it's the same house, same place as his parents raised him....
The proper hole for a new tree should be as deep as the distance from the root flare to the bottom of the root ball, but at least twice as wide. This is wider and shallower than you probably thought.
