Mark Burton We're (they're) trenching for new electric service at the house. (The mini hoe driver explained the importance of the bow.) Currently there are overhead power lines right where I'd like to put a building. Second pic shows a layer of bricks deep in the driveway. These are from the 1958 demolition of the original house across the drive from the existing one.
Most of the bricks are about 11" deep... that's where the driveway surface was at the time. Several times in my memory Dad had 100 tons of gravel put down, 2 or 3" thick each time. I've done it once (twice?). Total 6 or 700 ton in my memory. Some of the layers are obvious. Also, veins of iron rust. In the 70s and 80s, Brownie Tool Works machined a lot of cast iron and we'd fill pot holes with the chip dust. Loaded semis have run this driveway since 1953, so there's a fair bit of compaction too (the mini hoe driver can attest).
Modern archeology.
