Last year, I used pallets to make a boardwalk from the door of the RV to the truck. I intended to do the same thing this year, but soon realised that it was a waste of yard space.
I couldn’t figure out a cozy corner for my friend L’s Marshmallow and then clued in that if I removed the pallets, smoothed out the gravel in front of Miranda, and trimmed some sucker growth, I could have a really nice landing spot for smaller RVs (I have room on grass for bigger ones!). It would also be pretty much the spot where L parked last year, which he found very satisfactory.
So between work spurts today, I hauled and raked gravel to make a level surface along the back of the passenger side of the RV and then hauled the super heavy pallets with almost no space between the boards to make a deck.
-
- The ruts and horrible pallets made walking back here very hazardous!
-
- Long line of pallets to the truck. Not really necessary now that I have the gravel.
-
- Many loads of gravel later…
-
- I’m going to keep an eye out for scrap plywood to lay over top. I’m also looking for deck chairs that won’t blow away in the wind!
-
- A table would be nice, too. 🙂
-
- Left over pallets, which I will use between the floor and things I plan to store in the sheds. Imagine this area all smoothed out and with a guest RV parked on it!
I think I earned the biscuits and stew I have prepared for dinner. 🙂
Too bad I never head up that way; you make me feel welcome.
Why not come this way just for the heck of it? 😉
