well from an outsider perhaps... but what they represent is the results of lost traction and sinking in soft ground that resulted in just more fustrating time spent trying to free it....

When my wife and I got our trailor in 2000, we had the same situation. The guys brought it out in the morning and were hoping to be done before noon.... well...we had to get a dozer and we just got it unstuck around noon!

But we did get the project completed and the place was great for us while we were building our house.
