Well I am home. Got the area he wanted done, big part of the job was to clear out roots from some type of brush that was in some of the areas....very tough roots. I can rip out 6" pine stumps easier than some of these. Anyway, typical, I get there, gate is locked, nobody answers the phone. I lay on the horn twice in 10 minutes then the wife finally comes out and says they overslept...I was 2 minutes away from leaving. So, everything goes good from there on...get signed in, get my ID badge...dirt turns out to be pretty soft so I do get down 20-24". Dusty and dirty work. This is a retired Californian, obvious long time grower, so I didn't try to tell him 24" was not necessary. So they are happy, said it was the first contractor that did what he said he would do....also want me back to do the rest and pop out some holes with the 2' auger. I did get paid :D
Went over to my mowing job looking to put in 4 hours there, but I had a front tire go flat at 2 1/2 hrs...and the spare in the truck was flat! Oh well, short day, only 12 1/2 hours....
Thanks for all the comments...I was sure this would have been poofed by the time I got home.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
