Kanohi and i were watching the bobcat dig down in back when you heard it hit what i figured was some more foundation. After many tries to get under the object this is what appeared... a massive rock. The operator asked if we wanted to keep it and i said absolutely!
It was buried about 8 feet underground. I'm sure it was deposited during the Wisconsin glaciation; which ended some 10,000 years ago!
Blows my mind to think that it has been in that spot for at least 10,000 years as the ice receded and various ecosystems came and went, most importantly the tall grass prairie which created the 5 feet of black earth over it.
We'll be figuring out a place to put it once the construction is done. Of course we've yet to try and move it so it might just sit where it was pushed for another 10,000 years.
