My paw always told us to stay in school or we’d end up digging swales for a living one day.

Well, the world needs swale diggers too. Honest days work.

I’m following bc I need the same think done.

My initial thought process was to rent a sod cutter, cut the sod where I need the swale, move it aside, dig a swale and then lay the sod back over the swale.

I don’t feel confident in my abilities to complete this and would like a quote for someone to do it for me.

Call Coburns, tell em ya need somebody to dig a ditch.

They will have a list of diggers/guys that have equipment

What I did for a pipe lay, ole Ernesto dug it jus fine

Cheaper than calling a "real" company

I’ve considered the same but I would like a quote too. It’s a project i would prefer leave to someone who has the right equipment.

I have been using this word for years in speech. I was 47 years, 4 months and 2 days old when I saw how to spell it.
