We've lived in this house for 17 years now. It's got a nice long driveway which is part of the reason we liked it so much. It also has the power lines hanging right above that nice long driveway which has prevented a dump truck from easily spreading new gravel every few years. In fact we've not had new gravel since moving in here. When we get pot holes I go get a gravel scoop dumped in the back of the truck and I fill the holes as they arise....for the most part. It never really fixes the problem and I don't keep up on filling those pot holes very well. Which has led to a bumpy ride when coming down our driveway. It's been an ongoing problem for years.
So my Dad said "how about I come over with a tractor and regrade your driveway and put down new gravel". I said sure! So we called the quarry and had two truckloads of gravel delivered in two big piles near the house. The kids thought these were great! Sean even went out there with them and raced the RC cars over and around the gravel piles. There were some epic jumps happening.
My Dad rented a tractor with a box blade and fixed the potholes in the driveway and spread all the new gravel on top and in the car port which was a muddy mess. It looks awesome! It's so nice having a nice base of gravel on that driveway. Thanks Dad!
