I better say good morning lest someone get the happy thought that I had passed on from digging that hole.
All is well, new footings in place and waiting for the dozer to push new fill into the hole...must build stairs and close in the walls.
I paid the lads yesterday. One lad actually returned and said I paid them too much. He is not a Christian, to my knowledge, but it was refreshing to experience the honesty. His pay was exactly right; I paid them for an extra hour to reward the hard work. This lad got an extra ten dollars for his honesty.
Cheers,
Jim
Forgot to mention, wife printed a t-shirt with my photo in the hole holding a shovel and the caption: I can't believe I dug the whole thing
