how to move 32 tons of gravel from the upper end of the driveway to the other w/o using tools.... not to mention I now have a new graveled parking area at the lower end, won't have to mow that anymore. Geeze, is it never going to end, it was sheeting off my roof so fast and hard the rain coming down could not get thru it to fall on the deck, like standing in behind a waterfall. At any rate my 4x4 and my sons 4x4 yj came in handy this morning getting out of the driveway, won't be moving the wifes car till we fill in some of the ruts. I think our grand total of rain since last nite is around 8" or so. For the second time since I got it my sat receiver could not lock on for the whole 2 hours.
I'm just waiting for the first politican to mention the word 'drought emergency' I'll drown him in my front yard :D

where do you live at? It seems like every couple of weeks you are talking about heavens opening up and "flushing" your area down?

i know the feeling RichP my yard holds about 6 inches of water in the front and about 3 inches in the back everytime it rains and here in central VA we have had a total of 12 or 13 no rain days in the last 8 weeks so my yard looks like a lake or a small pond
