Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust.
If not for bar oil
My truck bed would rust.

I'm in Wisconsin.
It will take more than bar oil to keep rust away.

Little different today. I got 10 minutes down the road this morning on the way to work and got a call saying they didn't need me today if I wanted to stay home. Played cattle farmer before I left so they were taken care of already. Spent part of the day taking down old electrical service to reuse on shop and patched the hole and replaced the shingles where the mast went through the roof. Got another foot and a half or so of ground rod to drive but my arms say otherwise right now.

Probably kind of late for this time Tony, bu t maybe will help someone.
Ran electric to the family's barn last year, barn's been there 70+ years and only served by 200' of extension cords. Needed to drive an 8' ground rod for the new sub-panel, and was dreading it based on situations similar to yours. I accidentally came across a video similar to this one

and figured no damn way in our hard clay. I had all the various hammers ready, but actually only needed a quart bottle of water and about 5 minutes to get the 1st 6 feet of rod in the ground. Had to pound the last 2' with a sledge, but I'll be dipped, it actually worked.
