The good Lord...

Dirt, dirt, dirt everywhere!  Layers of dirt, piles of dirt and big holes where the dirt used to be.




Fascinating, isn't it??
Here is a picture of Jim pounding at the clay with a hammer.
Here is Jim showing us how deep the hole is.  
Here are the big guys resting after a hard day's work.  
Today, while all the digging was going on, Jim would measure and check levels , and whatever else guys do. He had just gone back to his truck to do something else, when the spot he had been standing on caved in to the bottom of the big hole.  5 minutes more at that spot and he would have been down there covered up with some real heavy smelly bad dirt.
  Jim's mom would always refer to God as "the good Lord".
Well, "the good Lord" was looking out for her boy today!
Never a dull moment around here folks!

  1. we should write a book some day, just about all the times god has protected dad from death--he's had a lot of near misses, and a lot seem to have happened before he turned 20!! kj

"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense." Ralph Waldo Emerson
