Yellow John Deere?

This backhoe appeared in our backyard. It was not unexpected, as we have been planning to renovate our kitchen into a new addition since early last spring. But we had no specific heads up from our contractor. We guess he is starting on Monday.

I guess yellow is a good color to alert bystanders that some heavy equipment is in the neighborhood. A sticker says this is a John Deere. And when I think Deere, I think green. But the 310SG shows up yellow on the Deere site. Live and learn.

Oh, cool, they have an instruction manual online. Hmm ...
