man gbdigger... you must be part irish... as teh old saying goes "if it wasn't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all". In a humor way it kinda looks like the hoe and dozer are afraid of water and trying to get as far away from it as they can. LOL.

Project in Coffeyville was completed on August 20th this year. We got flooded out four times during the project with the last time being the first week of July this year. Took us two weeks to dry out in 100 degree heat, lost 3 1/2 weeks in July...just unheard of. All in all it turned out pretty good considering weather and rash of equipment problems encountered.
