After use by a few fully-loaded concrete trucks, our driveway was in pretty bad shape. So yesterday Kenny, the kids, and I went to the site to work on it. Well actually Kenny worked while we watched and took pictures and video. We rented this small back hoe and "re-tooled" the gravel. Essentially, the concrete trucks left some pretty deep ruts in the gravel and all of the rock was piled in the center, so as you can see from these pics, Kenny just skimmed the high points of rock off the center and to the sides. It worked really well. We also moved some rock from the middle parts of the drive to the front entrance near the road, and back to the turn around area by the house

Kenny had fun - eventhough it rained. The kids were really good - they love playing in the front seat of the truck, although they almost locked me out once (now I take the keys with me!) After we finished at the site, we went to our rental house to clean and get ready to move in. We sold our house in Florence and are supposed to be out between the 18th and 23rd of June - like next week! We are pretty happy, the house was only on the market for about 2 weeks, and only about 11 days of that was really advertised. This week, we're working on finishing up the ICF forms and suspended concrete floor forms. We also need to decide on a lumber package too. So many things . . . Thanks for reading!
