Making a Driveway

Not what you want to see the night before putting in a driveway....tornado and severe thunderstorm warnings.







Wednesday morning the sky had cleared and we got ready for the arrival of the first load of crusher run stone to put down on the driveway. We laid a fabric which was supposed to keep the stone from sinking into the mud. Gary at the stone yard estimated we would need 4 truckloads (21-22 tons each) to fill the driveway, but by the end of the day we were up to truckload #9, and not finished yet. Thursday morning we had the final load (#10) delivered, and a truckload of 2 inch minus stone for the base of the foundation.









After the first load was in, Pjor dug out the place for the flares for the culvert and Rob installed them, so the water can go under the driveway.
