I looked your little friend up and it seems like this is the one. Sounds harmless!
"Cicada Killer (Sphecius speciosus)
Up to 1.5 inches long, this is the largest wasp in the Midwest. Cicada killers are mostly black with yellow markings on the abdomen. This solitary species nests in small burrows. The female searches trees for a cicada, stings it and tucks the paralyzed cicada under its body. The wasp either drags the cicada to its burrow, or launches itself from a tree and glides back to the burrow. Inside it lays an egg on the cicada, then covers the burrow with soil. The stingless male guards the nest. Larvae consume the paralyzed cicada and emerge as adult wasps the following spring."

That is a type of cicada killer, very docile wasp. They dig burrows in soft soil, where they bury a paralyzed grasshopper or locust, lay a single egg and close things up.
The only problem with these insects is they tend to form congregations of many of these wasps in the same area. I have seen dozens even hundreds of these burrowing in a rather small area.
Cicada killers are extremely beneficial insects.
You are pretty brave not knowing what you were dealing with. There are bald faced hornets, you would not want to introduce yourself to. Bald faced hornets are about 3/4 smaller, are mostly black and have white on their heads and abdomen. Stay clear of them, especially, their nest.
