Anything that makes it a little tougher for the city slickers to get to the good fishin’ holes is AOK with me.
Bingo! I like gravel roads. There is no reason to pave anything but highways. The side roads should all be gravel.
I like living on a slow speed, little traveled, gravel road.
They are better for families and for wildlife. Kids can walk the dog or ride their bike without getting run over.
Birds of all kinds need grit to live. Without grit no amount of winter feed will keep them alive.
Just one big winter ice storm can lock wildlife from the grit for weeks and they will starve.
They can always find grit on a gravel road because the snow plow will dislodge enough, even after ice storms, to keep them going.( Think, more turkeys, pheasants, and partridge.)
Fewer animals are run over when people slow down. They might even see some wildlife or have time to wave at a neighbor!
