Needed extra parking for multiple cars. We had been parking on the "grass" which turned into hard packed clay. Winter is coming and we don't want a muddy mess on our hands. Utility lines are too close to use heavy equipment - answer: Hand Tools! This was a ton of work but very satisfying to see the results of my hard labor!

Took about 6 loads of gravel in my 1/2 ton Dodge Ram. Each load cost me $26.17. I could have saved about $40 by having a dump truck deliver but I wanted to make sure I got exactly how much I needed, no more and no less. Turned out amazing!!!! So happy with it and my wife loves it too!
