If it rained, the oil stayed on top and the water soaked through. Keeps the dust down real well and the smell dissipates within a week.<br /><br />Cheers.<br /><br />Mike<br /><br />www.mostlymichael.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14104851430601547527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120586935905234915.post-31417072930625576802011-04-10T01:06:19.798-05:002011-04-10T01:06:19.798-05:00Well I finally broke down and bought the book... c...Well I finally broke down and bought the book... can't wait to read the family stories!Cindy Talbothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08411230171678289022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120586935905234915.post-35213121377101182742011-04-09T11:46:23.599-05:002011-04-09T11:46:23.599-05:00You may want to get some method of mixing the wate...You may want to get some method of mixing the water into that dust.

Sometimes when you mix rocks with fine material and then wet it down it will become almost like concrete. Tires of the vehicles will also roll over the tops of the rocks and not disturb the fine dust as much as well.daPrinchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14039037269589894883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120586935905234915.post-63407497995297427332011-04-08T23:16:28.403-05:002011-04-08T23:16:28.403-05:00I wish you success with your tree germination... a...I wish you success with your tree germination... a great tribute to Crazy Aunt Jean, to have them line your place.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16688625811762405137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120586935905234915.post-20982216018983280172011-04-08T23:05:26.518-05:002011-04-08T23:05:26.518-05:00There for a little bit I thought you had been in t...There for a little bit I thought you had been in to so peyote.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04772195580511867949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120586935905234915.post-84299086344604867142011-04-08T22:21:58.932-05:002011-04-08T22:21:58.932-05:00That's what I like about your blog.

You present things in a more scientific manner than the average bear, and simple things like dusty dust become creationary evidence that most any wonderer can appreciate. <br />Wonder if the stuff can be grid-cut with a chain saw like igloo blocks and used as an engineering material?!<br />Doin' great, John.markiesparkiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07808614832008772375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6120586935905234915.post-49711217882652775542011-04-08T22:18:05.825-05:002011-04-08T22:18:05.825-05:00Its a lot worse on the road getting here.
