Wanted to pass on a great idea my neighbor's wife came up with years ago...

I wanted to add on to our deck and needed to dig twelve holes for the posts. My neighbor let me use their post hole digger and because our soil is sandy with gravel, the post hole digger wouldn't remove the soil once I got down to about two feet deep. The sand and gravel would just drop out of the digger's jaws.

My neighbor's walked over to see how the project was going, and saw how it just wasn't working so my neighbor's wife said, "Would a shop vacuum remove the sand and gravel from the hole"? I thought it made sense since it's just dirt.

I fired up my old shop vac and it worked perfectly. I even made the holes deeper than the required depth. All I had to do was empty the vac when it was full.

Try this trick if you run into the same problem, I guarantee it works!

Been there done that, even with dirt and water. Now clean up of he hose took longer (don't let it dry). Hydro/vacuum trucks for digging is the sure way of going down a hole without hitting the infrastructure that is in place.
Another way is to install Techno Post Systems as I did on the renovation. had to put 14 more posts in and the building code required Big Foot tubes. That would of required digging a trench 100ft in total, 4' deep, and 3" in width. Crazy amount of digging, so we had the posts installed instead.

Shop vacs are great for cleaning bay scallops too. You shuck the top shell, then use the shop vac to suck off all the snot. Then all you have to do is cut the scallop out of the bottom shell and drop it in the bucket.

Good morning, I mean the wind is howling, I read 105 gust in Cheyenne and mid 80s some where close by but don’t re all exact. If you look on a map, I’m straight N of the NE corner of Colo. right on the second river basically. I keep thinking everything that’s going to blow away already has but I will see later.
Rusty, Ethie, I have a good friend named Ethan, I like your www. This is what I don’t understand about them. Hosting I think is term. What does it take for you to be host? Trenches. .Org kind of situation. I have heard of go away daddy www make but why do you need them? Or I don’t understand how it all works.
72 days retire, you’ve earned it, you can’t just stop cold turkey, can you? I know several friends that had trouble getting use to retirement after a lifetime of doing what they loved really didn’t want to stop, there identity was gone? I also know some safari goers that got caught up in scam. They found this travel agent that was figuring out fake tax write offs. Say you go and take 7 animals. He would value each on an individual trip, all the mount were somehow sent to him and you payed a royalty to get your mounts. Scam tax scam big mess
Big gold, Big fish, even that heavy stuff would blow away today, maybe, wanna bet I pickup an arrow today? It does make all that breeze my friend when I do.
Goood day all
