After all the old pavement was hauled away….

We were down to dirt and apparently a good bit of sand…

.

.

Which, as it turns out…. is not good at all.

At the same time our driveway was being destroyed and rebuilt the neighbor was having theirs worked on as well.

Which means Lord Dudley Mountcatten has a hard time finding a quiet place to sleep.

An inconvenienced cat is a horrible thing.

Sand is bad for drainage and after scraping off the tar and a layer of topsoil, sand and clay is what they found.

.

.

Which meant digging down a solid foot and hauling it away.

Of course work could progress much more quickly if my husband wouldn’t go out and chat up the crew every hour on the hour.
