Daddy's Little Helper





Recently, with the help of my fabulous brother-in-law Lee, we put in a fruit orchard on our property. To make sure that the 25 or so trees grow as desired, Rick put in a drip irrigation system. Now, because we are 40 somethings, we have learned to let equipment do the work whenever possible. So Rick rented a trencher from the local equipment rental place. Reilly thought this was the best machine ever made and quickly jumped into the trench to help it remove the dirt. After the pipe was put into place, the guys started covering it with the removed dirt. Apparently Reilly liked it better the other way, becaue every time Rick put a shovel of dirt in the trench Reilly would dig it back out. We were fortunate to capture a couple of pictures:)
