I work for the family construction company. I grew up around big equipment. My father used to deliver a dump truck load of sand for our sand box every Spring. He dug the hole for our pool when I was little. Little by little he cleared out the overgrown lot next door to us and turned it into a nice yard. So, this summer when I was looking at the overgrown back part of our property, I instantly thought of the hydro axe. My cousin came over to check things out and then dispatched not only the hydro axe but a Komatsu 200 shovel equipped with a bucket that has a thumb and one of our best operators to run them. In one day (ONE DAY!!!) he had managed to fill in the old pit of despair and clear out fences, saplings, weeds and vines and reveal the back portion of our property. In a few more hours yesterday morning, he weeded my red shed garden, took down the lunging ring and hydro-axed the stuff that had grown up inside it, and dug us a new, enormous pit of despair! Gotta love heavy equipment!!! I'm stoked and re-energized to spiff up the place!
