Progress. 


This morning we got on the phones and called a bunch of equipment rental places in search of a hydraulic jackhammer. No luck. Although some did have skid steers with attachments for the jackhammer. Likewise, it appears the bobcat at RMBL is a no go. It will not start. So we went to the site. 


3' and 4' anchors went in the ground by method of digging, backfilling and brute strength. Within a few hours we had towers 2 and 3 up and permanently guyed. Spent the rest of the day planning our next moves. 


Gary has agreed to bring us an electric jackhammer and other requested items. Hoping that now we have the correct attachments the jh will work. 


Tomorrow is a down day as we await the remaining gear needed for final anchors. It is also Steve's Birthday. Happy Birthday Steve!
