With all the recent rains, it is quite clear that I must gravel/cinder our driveway and walkways.
The previous owners of our lot were major horticulturalists. We have deep and rich earth throughout. However, with all the recent rain - we now also have bogs and mud pits. The only vehicle that gets to park close to the house is my 4x4. [

Other than walking on it, I know next to nothing about cinder. Ditto gravel.
I'm hoping some knowledgeable Punawebbers might share their experience and preferences. Is there any particular benefit of one cinder color/type over an other? Red versus black? Gravel a better alternative? Costs associated?
Last, and probably most important, could anyone recommend a reputable cinder/gravel dealer and hauler?
Any and all input would be appreciated. My family is going to revolt soon if I don't put something substantial over the ground.
Much thanks in advance....
