Early spring weather creates beauty in our fields, woods, and streams. But, it has the opposite effect on many of our dirt and gravel lanes and driveways.
The cycles of freezing-thawing-raining-snowing-icing-thawing, coupled with vehicular traffic, create potholes, ruts, and muddy mounds that need to be filled-in and leveled.
