The Gully Washer

Last week, Thursday I think it was, we had a big rain. We received 2.5 inches overnight.

The driveway wash was the worst I believe I'd ever seen. Since our driveway is about 1/4 of a mile long, this covers a lot of ground. The water must have been rolling fast down the hill that night.

Not so bad, eh?

But wait. All of that gravel is supposed to be in the driveway, not the yard.

Oh dear. More gravel in the yard.

Look at those nice deep grooves that rattle a car.

This is the lower end of the driveway. Suddenly we have a new ditch!

That gravel under the fence belongs in our driveway.

Another new ditch.

Drop a wheel over that and I might be stuck!

Fortunately we have the equipment to fix this with. Many other folks aren't so lucky.
