We got the driveway graveled last November after an experience of slip-sliding around on the mud in the back meadow. So with the graveled drive we thought our worries were over.
The ground had become so saturated with all the rain that had been falling on the Santa Rita over the past week, if not longer, that there was water standing all over the road. The flow of the water had washed a lot of the gravel away in areas...and when we hit a patch of mud, the truck fish-tailed and we headed for the side of the driveway...and once off the gravel, we were rim deep in mud! Some six hours of work later the truck was finally free of being bogged down in the mud!
Fortunately, as an artist I don't mind getting dirty and I love playing in mud and clay!
