Hi Joe,
I have a similiar situation here. My plan is to go to the local equipment
rental shop and rent a backhoe with a jack hammer attached. I used one to dig
the footings for my house and it worked real well. I've got to get a 4'x4'x7'
hole in pure rock. If you can wait awhile I'll tell you how it goes! I'm
planning on digging weekend after next.
73,
Jeff - WB5YWI
