Looks good.
The border idea would be a good addition.
One concern would be if and when the road will be repaired/repaved, will the grade be the same as your driveway is currently? If not, you may need to make some adjustments to the end of the driveway.
Otherwise, I'd say "Kudos, on a job well done!"

I think it looks just fine.

Caution it will get very slippery when it gets cold. I forsee a keesta plant there if your not careful.

If the town doesn't maintain or plow the road apply for a real estate tax abatement based on the assertion that you receive much less in services than other homeowners.

Still haven't fish huh?

That's a great idea

No, no fishing...my wife has been away for two weeks due to a gravely ill family member leaving me with our son, I've been traveling a lot on business and my vacation was all labor...too tired to fish.

I think that your wife is correct. Take another week off--DIG IT ALL UP AND START AGAIN!!! I,d offer to help but i'll be fishing. Just joking with you. You have my sympathy, but the wife is ALWAYS right, and don't forget it.

drive way

Get some more stone dust and dust the pavement and roll it again. This will lighten the color of the pavement andcause an easier transition. You might have to do it acouple of times and use a real heavy roller. Nice job and good luck

I love the look of cobblestone. You can come cobblestone my driveway and I promise I wont complain.


I think your wive needs to tell you just exactly it is your supposed to use instead of asphalt? Cobblestone needs to meet asphalt at some point.....deal with it

Simplify.......
