Better luck than I am having here.  I need a 3'X3'X3' hole dug for a 
radio tower base.There is a guy about 2 miles from me with a mini 
excavator.  I called him several times and he never called back.  I 
caught him at home one day and we made arrangements for him to come by 
in a couple of days.  He never showed and never called.  He later told 
someone he came by four times and no one was home but we are almost 
always home but are often in the shop and craft room.

I have found a three point back hoe that I can borrow and possibly 
another tractor with a backhoe.  This will happen next spring.  We are 
also looking to build a house and I will do the foundation excavation 
myself.  Depending on people in the Ozarks can be difficult.
