Our First Contractor

Meet our excavation contractor who specializes in digging footers. Four of them actually, but he generally just uses the front two. Quite fuel efficient, only noisy sometimes, he can excavate a few cubic feet per minute. He's pretty cheap labor working for bones, but we have some degree of trouble aiming his digging capacity. Nonetheless, he's part of our project team. At least until he's distracted by a squirrel or cat. This work he completed was at our old Idlewild digs, he's rather proud of his accomplishments. Note, he does show up on time and ready for work. In fact, that was one of the things that lead to the decision to hire him. He always seemed to be hanging around anyway. Underfoot might be the right word. He actually included this photo submission as proof that he is a skilled excavator. I think he was actually trained in grass removal, but has a sideline job rearranging earth.
