Tractor Pulling is known as “the world’s heaviest motorsport.” The goal of tractor pulling is to determine the strongest machine and the best driver. Different to every other motorsport in the world, it is not about the speed, but distance pulled. The pulling track is a minimum of 30 feet wide by 320 feet long. Today's tractors can achieve theoretical speeds over 125 mph/200 km/h. Today's sleds use a complex system of gears to move weights up to 65,000 pounds/29,000 kilograms. Upon starting, all the weights are over the sled's rear axles, to give an effective weight of the sled plus zero.
Sasha loves to dig. She had a good time digging at the beach. I'm babysitting her for a week and it's always a good sign with the dog falls asleep after the exercise. Yay!
Digging in the heat all day-the kids thought they were going to get a Dairy Queen but they actually got paid.
These kids are digging on a jacket full of fossils, at The Woodlands Xploration Station. The little plastic Dimetrodon in front shows you what they are working on

while digging through the attic for christmas boxes I came across this card recieved one recent Christmas from my prairie aunty with a picture from 1962 of my grandpa and me. In this picture she was astonished to have learned from my Mom that he was turning tabs on paper doll dresses for me, as a father he had been gruff and busy and somewhat crushed by a world that had too little work for pay for this finishing carpenter with nine children to feed. As a Grandpa, the terrible temper had been put away and while it was hard I am sure for my mother to leave room for him to be in our world initially, he lived with us for a couple of years when I was very small and passed when I was nine. He built a boat that was named for me, we bought fresh shrimp and ate raw oysters at the Vancouver docks (i was not a vegetarian at 3), shared whiskey (or apple juice) in shot glasses and ate Danish blue cheese and apparently played paper dolls on snowy days. My grandma passed when I was three and my dad’s mom before I was born, but grandpas in my experience were sources of sweet entertainment, bawdy stories and strange snacks. and to my mom, though she never fully embraced it, i savor the thought 'forgiveness is a gift you give to yourself' and in this case your children.
Week 39/52 Theme: "Man vs Nature" MCP Project 52.
A man digging up my lawn for the cable company. Believe it or not he's standing up in the hole. He dug the hole all by himself, which is impressive considering below the first inch or so of topsoil its hard clay and pracitally impossible for me to shovel.
The foreman was having a hard time getting traction in the sandy wash. We solved the issue by having Jim and Rachel sit on the front and back of the Foreman, after that I had great traction and the rock moved easily.
A week after taking photos of my neighbor's puppy, it got ran over by a car. :( I'm glad I got some photos to give the girl who owned it.
Maggie, our coach, demonstrates correct double digging technique. Note the board to distribute weight and not pack down soil.
This little girl was digging energetically in the beach sand, as if she planned to get all the way to China:)

Picture of innocence and pure imagination. How I wish I could go back in time and play in my own world without care...
In an established gold field, such as this one at Gangaol, the holes are dug closer and closer together. Occasionally, the excess digging creates weaknesses, causing the walls to collapse. Last year, four miners died when a line of pits too close to each other collapsed, burying the miners. Their bodies will never be recovered. Nobody is digging here anymore.
