This man is digging a hole for the emergency latrine that we want to install, it has to be at least four meters deep! It's amazing how hard these people worked and how fast the emergency latrines could be implemented!

Those colored vinyls sitting out on top with no sleeves were children's records. I would have bought them except I was on my bike with no basket to carry them in and I gave myself a strict no-purchases rule for this trip. Pictures only.
Obviously there is gold and great treasure hidden in the mud, and this guy and his friends are going to find it.
The main stand at The Northolme (or the KAL Group Stadium), home to Gainsborough Trinity Football Club, members of the Northern Premier League's Premier Division. Built during the mid-1940s, the structure was refurbished circa 2000. Captured before an FA Cup first round tie, televised live by TNT Sports, with League Two's Accrington Stanley, who after extra time won 2-1.
The Northolme, laid out in the 1850s, was originally a cricket ground. In the early 1860s, several cricket clubs opted to take up football during the winter. The Northolme staged League football between 1896 and 1912. A total of 281 Football League games were played at The Northolme. The highest gate was 5,600 (versus Chelsea, 1911), the lowest 500 (versus Blackpool, 1902). The recently improved main stand was called the Victory Stand on its Forties completion.
Gainsborough Trinity were formed, in 1873, as Trinity Recreationists, by the vicar of Holy Trinity Church, a George Langton Hodgkinson, who wanted to give his young parishioners something to do. Trinity's nickname, Holy Blues, reflects their origins and their traditional colours. Prior to securing Football League status, Trinity were members of the Midland Counties League then the Midland League.

Maggie, our coach, demonstrates correct double digging technique. Note the board to distribute weight and not pack down soil.
Here I've welded the base of the shank to the black pipe (6013 weld rod is my favorite for this job) The next part took me a while to learn via several failures but is the secret to this lifetime tool. I have to render the TIP of the shank immobile where it lies encased now in the black pipe. I accomplish this by cranking up the arc welder to 135 amps and blast a small hole near the premeasured location of the shank tip. I then lay the weld bead on the shank through the hole I've made and slowly withdraw the rod filing the hole as I withdraw the rod. Look at the white dot on the black pipe to the left of the tip of the displayed weld rod. That's the fill hole now closed. I now flip the fork over and repeat the immobilization of the shank on the opposite side.
Experience shows me that this procedure stops any shank flexing inside the pipe and keeps my first weld from breaking loose. All I do now is coat the black pipe with liquid nails, a glue, and force it into the stainless steel pipe. This is the best fork not found on the market to avoid the frustration of another broken garden tool. It is made of TOtally REcycled MAterials (TOREMA) and money can't buy it. With all materials on hand I made two lifetime quality digging forks in under twenty five minutes. The fork leverages better for hard soils because it is long -handled and splinters in the hands aren't possible as there is no wood to weather. I paint the tines gold and call it "The TOREMA gold digger!"

After huge winds in the storms of the past few weeks, Bayshore residents and property managers begin the gritty task of digging out. Sand blows like snow on the Bayshore spit. It just doesn't melt.
My cows have pawed holes in the pasture.
I fill them in and they just dig them out again.
In this photo my bull is doing the pawing, but the cow beside is the one that does most of the digging.

Looks like an archaeological dig in progress. This are probably due to be covered over by student flats to match those already in place across the street.
«Faccio spesso sogni riguardanti i vecchi tempi. Sogno che stavo pescando su di una barca... ma è inutile, ora. È tutto dentro di me, nel mio cuore. E torna a mostrarmisi come in una visione. Ma tutto ciò è inutile: l'unico luogo verso cui salperò, ora, sarà la tomba.»
Expansion Update: Concrete is gone. You can see the challenges in digging when your located on the edge of a "river." i.e. Rocks!
Maggs digs in to position as the pitcher readies to toss a pitch. Magglio had a good night out in right field, but did miss a chance to make a nice sliding catch on a ball hit to the right center gap. Note the rare grass stains on his pants.
