Whilst I was away for the annual EAGLE FORD vernal voyage from Chesapeake, VA to North Kingston, RI (a trip that was extra exciting this year – but that’s another story), James Ploof came over with his father’s mini-excavator and made short work of extracting the final stump and associated boulder from the barn-build site.  The rock measures roughly 5′ x 2′ x 2′3″, which equates to a paltry 3,375 pounds… which may explain why I couldn’t get it out with the Kubota.
