Bobcat

We had another terrific weather weekend; mid to upper 50’s on both Saturday and Sunday. We had an opportunity to borrow a bobcat from Scott’s work and planned to do some leveling and grading of the yard. Bobcats are certainly nifty. With the power of a small army, this device was able to make quick progress of multiple yard projects. We moved all the logs to a corner of our yard and began to move some dirt around. The shortfall of the bobcat was that the bucket was slightly too large to maneuver into small spaces. In almost all instances we had to bring the bobcat as close as possible to a location and then manually shovel the dirt into the bucket. I have officially decided that shoveling dirt is one of the most grueling tasks. I would rather haul bricks than shovel. In addition to leveling out various parts of the yard, Scott also replaced a dilapidated retaining wall with some new green treated lumber. Pictures will be posted soon . . .
