Little old lady in Eugene gave me a tip that saved my back

I was putting up a cedar privacy fence for a client near Eugene last spring, and her grandma came out to watch. She pointed at my post hole digger and told me to wet the ground the night before if I wanted to save my shoulders. Tried it on the last three holes, and man, it cut my digging time in half. Anyone else got a weird tip from a homeowner that actually worked?

SOAKING the ground overnight is a GAME CHANGER. I did the same thing digging post holes for my deck last summer.

About time someone said it... always rushed this part before.
