Default Finally got it done!!!!

After searching all over for rental equipment, Chad "Is it October Yet" hooked me up with some equipment. I haven't a clue as to how much dirt we moved this week Wed-Sun with a 140 trackhoe, 650 dozer & 2 dump trucks running from daylight to dark, but we got er done! My pad had to be 3 1/2', didn't realize how much that was plus 400' of driveway built up & shop pad. Well at least I got the pond I wanted! Approx 3/4 of an acre & around 12' deep. The pictures of the pond does it no justice! If any of you guys are looking for rental equip in the N.O.-BR or even surrounding areas give Chad "is it October Yet" a shout.

I looked at the modular's & was set, bought the plans & everything. Talked to a builder out of Prairieville & he can build me a house for about $10 more a sq ft. So I'm building.
