Wish I had my CDL, I'm going to try to get it later this year and maybe within the next couple I can find an older semi like that freightliner or an old pete.

So anyways we got the ditch dug tonight. Used a mini excavator.
BIG thanks to Tim Sr. (TJ's dad) for running the excavator like the pro that he is. Also a big thanks to Travis for getting the machine to use in the first place.
All that is left to do is finish about 100' of pipe laying and filling the ditch back in. Not gonna rush and run the wire this weekend.

Well it's done! Well the conduit is in the ground from the Cave to the house. I still gotta run the conduit up and over to the panel. Then pull the wire. I'm gonna definitely need help with that.
Thanks to Tom for stopping by Sat but i didn't require help.

BIG thanks to Tim Sr. (TJ's dad) for coming over Friday night and digging the trench with a mini excavator. He's been doing it for 30 years and had it done in no time. Also Big thanks to Travis for getting the mini to use.
Here's some pics.

Anyone got two 315 75 16 they are selling cheap? I need to at least replace the fronts but cash is way to tight for another couple months to get a set of new tires.
