I needed to get a little french drain installed in front of a new slab and my trench diggers are on vacation until first of the month. That sort of work is way beyond my current physical abilities and I did not want to wait 2 more weeks so I decided to hack it out with the loader bucket. Worked better than expected and I will be able to close it up tomorrow and get on with putting down the new gravel.

Title is "Stimulating backhoe"
How does one "stimulate" a backhoe?
