Thursday morning my day didn't start out so well. The transmission on the lowboy truck to a crap when I was moving the last machine onto the job site. I managed to get there at 25 mph, so with that weighing on my mind I wanted to get started making money rather than spending it.
11:45am
After doing some exploratory digging with the excavator we had a plan of attack, so I decided to back fill the trenches before we went to lunch because it was starting to rain and didn't want the trenches to fill with water.

Enjoying lunch at the local greasy spoon

Show up to the job site to find this.
Its unknown what happened to cause this. The machine was only operated approx. 5 mins that morning so your guess is as good as mine.
Altorfer Cat gave an est. of $140,000 to fix it, but as of this point the insurance company hasn't decided what they are going to do.
Remember to pay them premiums no matter how much it hurts!
