Heck I would guess in spots the entire road was about 10' wide or less. So 18 is like a highway when compared... lol

Any idea if the county plans to widen, or add a shoulder, to Cave Springs road?

Its great to improve the road down the hill and all, (many thanks) =)) but if the road leading to the hill is still 10' wide what is the point? :-?

Guess I shouldnt ask such stupid questions eh! :D
