Side mount all the way. As mentioned, a lot cleaner look. I have a row off 4 can lights over my cabinet/countertop area and 4 regular lights evenly spaced in the ceiling. All the lights are on their separate switch; I can control how much light I need.

Found a Dewalt 20v LED light in the road. Picked up a Dewalt 20v angle grinder. When I was picking up Bagsters for WM somebody threw away a brand-new Porter Cable table saw complete with a owner's manual. I couldn't fit it in the cab of my truck so to the landfill it went.

Thanks for all the options guys, I currently mow the sides and the center when needed. I guess I just need more company to push the weeds down.

Alder grows in clumps like a bush but get 15'-20' tall. these are some that are somewhat separated and will be cut down. I cut the one on the right already. This is a picture of an area I clear cut to the right of the pine tree. The pine didn't grow well on the right side because of the alder...

Lets see if this works Thanks PC, I think that was the issue

Having issues again posting pics, I'll try again later, this is giving me a headache.

Was up last week and grabbed some more photos. First one is of the driveway after it was mowed, kind of like the looks of it.

Geesh, that was a hassle. Anyway, we're going up next week for the whole week and I'll try to get some pics of the gray alder I was talking about. Thanks for all of your input.

Thanks Guys, I kind of agree with the thought of leaving it grow and cutting it when I cut the grass, which is weekly. The drive is sloped and crowned slightly so it will not develope any muddy spots. The picture I posted doesn't represent a good example of the width of the driveway, it's...

Just for reference, this is an example of what my driveway used to look like when we first bought it in 2022. The second is what we are looking at now. Hans has me second guessing getting the driveway back to gravel, I was thinking vegetation in the driveway is a bad thing. I could live with...

Let's ease up on my weed killing plan vs decimating the lake. The driveway ends approx. 300' from the shoreline and there is not any slope to the lake. The driveway isn't a jungle needing chain sawing, I mow the sides and center with a zero turn currently. Using a drag won't work, tried that...

I'll be going up next weekend and I'll get some pictures. Just for reference, it's an establishing driveway, no need to weed whip/chain saw anything unless something falls across the road. Firebick43, I'll look into Pramitol. Needs to be ani animal safe.

I have about 800-900ft of gravel driveway/road at the lake that needs some maintenance. We have tons of weeds/grass growing on the driveway and I want to get rid of them. The previous owner lived there full time and kept the weeds down by driving on them, we only go up on weekends and it is...

Central MN, with in floor NG, set at 65 at all times. We hang out there ALOT.

Thanks Guys, I ended up going with the contractor that came in the middle of the pack money wise. It is up and running.
