Foundation Frustrations

We have a great friend who is renting us his mini trac-hoe for a really low price and we couldn't be happier.
We unloaded it off of our trailer and decided to pull up 2 stumps that would have been loacated under the great room and ....BOOM...Ken hits our current sewer line.  So we go and buy all of the stuff to reloacate the sewer line (it was going to have to be moved anyway) and we spent the next 4 hours getting the entire house foot print laid out and making sure that all of our lines/walls were square and true.  Ken climbed back up on the trac-hoe and dug our first scoop of dirt (see picture) and then the hydralic seal blew out on one of the arms and we couldn't get it fixed until the first of the week.
Our First Scoop of Dirt for Foundation


Update: I am happy to report that we have the fixed arm back and we are now waiting for Ken to come home for the weekend and get to digging again.
