I want ditches dug and atleast the road shaled if not rocked. I have his personal cell phone number and I am dead serious about calling him, which I told him I'd do. We've lived here for 18 years and they've never done anything about this. My folks have called them numerous time as well as the schools. The school bus was constantly getting stuck when they use to have to come get me. I don't know if you can tell from the pictures but its a soft dirt/sand road with banks on the side. Well for all these year they've been blading those banks to the center of the road and now its nothing but a big mudbog, and I'm tired of it. They have fixed up the roads on all the sections around us over they years but have ignored our requests, which have been very civilized up until now. My parents have been real nice about the whole deal and nothing has happened so we'll see if me being an ******* does any good

I lived on a dirt road about 7 miles long growing up. I don't miss it at all. I do miss the the two healers we had. They are incredibly smart dogs. We had the same problems with the county trying to get them to fix it

Beautiful IMO; I'd love to live somewhere like that. Where did you get the 2 bolt flanges for the headers, are they 3"?
