Our unpaved road was looking pretty good until this last snow storm. After the most recent plowing, we lost a lot of the stones and some hard-packed dirt from the top layer. Then the snow began to melt. As a result, our road has now developed a good many pits, some of them in close proximity. Our once stout little path now has the wet, bumpy feel of the skin right below a bad sunburn.
Driving on it is quite an experience. On either side of the pockmarked path is a 2-foot mound of packed ice. Not only are headlights unnecessary now, but opening your eyes is no longer required: You can just follow the pits below and let the ice keep you in the slot. I've tried it. Driving was never easier. Or bumpier.
