I really love the fact that of 38 comments, none were negative. It was so wonderful to see people honoring skill and honest work like that. Thanks to all of you.

First of all, I hope to live to his apparent advanced age and if I do, I hope to be physically able to have his strength and stamina. Yes, he's breathing heavily, but damn, he ain't stopping. Good for you, old timer! You give me something to strive for!

That's wild. I don't really understand the smack on the top, bc there's still loose pieces that end up on it... I'm sure stuff that deep is compact. However I wonder if it helps break that piece off some how. 🤔 Very interesting. This is probably something he has been doing 60 years.

I remember the tool for digging turf ,"peat", as having a right angle blade. Also, the peat was stored above ground. The bogs were not dug this deep. My guess is this is clay for Adobe bricks.
