We've left the straight and narrow....

Spiritually you can't beat the straight and narrow but for driveways... we've gone for the wide and easy! Ben finally got to play with a real Tonka and took out about 14 large stumps from all over the property. Then they re-graded the driveway and broadened things out a bit!
This is from the top of the driveway looking up toward the house.
Before....
After!


This is looking down the driveway from the same place.
Before...

After!

Those of you with two wheel drive are going to be very thankful we did this! We just about doubled the width and it is not nearly as steep.

My parents moved from Utah (where they lived their entire lives) to Elk in March 2007. They've experienced a bit of homesteading, too. So fun! I love seeing how you guys are living it up in this season God has blessed you with!!

I love it! My husband in in Kenya and was trying to describe the DIRT roads there. While I don't think yours would swallow a car, I am certain the 2-wheel drivers will be really glad!
