My driveway from my truck, in the rain. It's (almost) too steep to walk up or down.

gaddam, it looks gorgeous

Long.

Much better than CE's driveway.

You should see what's on the other side . . .

Ha! Looks like my parents' Summer place. Except theirs is still gravel and dirt. I won't even take the Mustang or m/c on it, just something with AWD or 4WD. Love the quietness of a nice wooded place, however. I'd bet it makes the occasional harrowing drive in or out worthwhile.

The trees were green and leafy when that photo was taken. It's pretty much leafless now.

We have had a few harrowing driveway moments, starting the day the drive was poured. A concrete truck and the Cat D-4 pulling it's front bumper kept sliding downward and backwards unless they were both in gear. The look on the concrete truck driver was something else.

Tomorrow is trash pickup day, I will tow the trash bin up and down with my truck.

No trick-or-treaters and only on Jehovah Witness in over six years.

but I bet that Cousin Eddie is so jealous, and whoever the mofo millionaire is that GRMCooper referred to is just drooling with envy

^I can imagine. We've had some fun times over the years...you have to take a run at my parent's place to get up to the road, but the problem is, you can't have so much speed going at the top that you just barrel out into the road without regard for whether any cars are coming.

Some really rainy periods used to leave that road a bit like playing Russian Roulette. And no one wants to have to try to go get a car that has gone over the side. From your description and the pic, it sounds quite a bit like my folks' place.

Small price to pay for being able to sit outside in the Summer, have a cool drink, and listen to the sounds of nature instead of a city.
