Very nice but that gravel driveway would drive me nuts

Maybe you could a least pave the area around the house, just a thought.

Been tempted to have it paved from time to time…then every spring as I’m repairing my lawn from the propane delivery truck driving off the edge of my driveway several times during the winter, I can’t help thinking how PO’d I'd be if I was repairing broken asphalt instead of just touching up the stone and topsoil.

I live in the country…gravel is a mainstay. I can’t drive anywhere without encountering a freshly oiled and stoned public road. My driveway is the least of my “gravel hazards” during the summer.

Yes, there is a normal insulated 16' overhead garage door there (open in the pics). The screen panels slide side-to-side in an aluminum track in front of the overhead door.

The screen panels stay in the track and do not interfere with the normal operation of the overhead door. Sliding garage screen doors are very popular in the southern USA…not so much up north.
