Lookin' for dirt

No, I haven't become a political consultant, although come to think of it, that sounds like a pretty simple job.  I mean, how hard could it be to find "dirt" on a politician?

In this case I'm looking for plain 'ol black dirt.  We're needing to raise the elevation of the lot that we're starting to build on and I need about 30 truckloads.  So far I'm about half way there.  To buy it and haul it would cost $150 or more a load, but I'm on the prowl for free dirt.  I've called all my pool company contacts, but they don't put in many pools this late in the year.




I'm not a very patient person.  I'm wanting to get this job rolling, but until I get more dirt, I'm stuck.  See why I don't want to be totally 100% retired?  I'd go nucking futs before lunch.


Hmmm....scotch for lunch.  Now there's an idea.  ;)
