Not really. I have driven through from SF to Utah and I think I have a few pictures I took along the way, but this would have been a long time ago. So not really. I can see from your pictures that it is a beautiful place to live. I'm not going back to Texas because it's beautiful :-)
If I lived where you live I would buy a great metal detector and go find history and meteors. Also pan for gold in those streams.

Is that your Client base down there in that clearing? :biggrin: You might need the metal detector and gold pan.

We used several cases of Cobbs ultra seal the other day to seal some fake stone walls and wanted to see what it did on the concrete so I applied a couple of coats to a couple of areas of the concrete.

It did the same as your super scientific test did results wise.

After repeated dousings with water the water eventually started seaping into the concrete, so not water proof but very resistant.

They commented as how they could see it resisting while it was raining.

Oh and I used the uv resistant ultraseal product as recommended by Dave gill and Larry Cobb for more durability to outside or direct exposure to sunlight.

Hope you didn't put too much. Several years ago when my father was still living he had a new drive put in at his home. They sealed the concrete but he didn't believe them, so he had them do it again heavier. When rained or snowed it was hard to walk on that thing it was so slick. The snow wouldn't stick to it but you couldn't get much traction with the snow blower since the tires would slip also.

Even after years passed that stuff would not come off. My mother moved after his passing but I bet that drive is still a mess.

I believe you have to use a sealant that allows the concrete to breathe.

My driveway is a slab of concrete, not a virgin bed of purity. So, I paint, work on the car and do whatever needs done on a slab of concrete. Come ON, guys!
