A New Road

I have lived in the country in Kansas for over 20 years driving the last two miles to our house on gravel roads . . . except when it rained, then the last two miles were on mud roads. And people wondered why my car was never clean.

Now that we have decided to sell our country home and move to a downsized home on a paved road in town, the county has decided to pave the road to our house.

In preparation, they cut down all of the trees and brush along one side so they could widen the road, grade new ditches, and install new culverts under driveways. They also hauled in numerous truckloads of dirt to raise the level of the roadway.




So we're going to have a paved road to our house. Maybe I can drive a clean car until we find a buyer for the house. Come to think of it, maybe a paved road to the house will help us find a buyer sooner. I sure hope so!
