Yes. My driveway can only accomodate 1 car. So whoever gets there first has the best spot! Unless it’s raining, then 5 or 6 can fit, a dollar for figuring out that riddle. ---

Is the Google street map of your place accurate? 2. Is this some sort of awful pun, or play on words? 3. When it rains, is there additional parking space available physically speaking? When the epic flood comes to your area, I may park my car on top of the fourth car in a stack and thus win one dollar! A complete victory indeed. ---

Hint: bear in mind I’m in a wheelchair. By the way, it looks like rain. ---

The ramp into the house goes up when it rains? Thus making the rest of the driveway accessible? I’m tapped out. ---

Well, if I come over early with food, I get the driveway, so…pbbbbtttt! However, unless your ramp has taken out part of the driveway, I seem to remember it being long enough for three or four cars, so…oh, now I’m just confused! If some of you are crashing there overnight, would you like me to make a breakfast casserole for you all to have Sunday morning, or will you just fend for yourselves? ---

There is no ramp. I have a lift. ---
