‘Playing’ in Sand

Artis Garage 0 Comment

We ordered 5 cubic yards of coarse sand  – that equals 7 tons.  Well, it was too much for the garage and created a lot of extra work but – we also were able to use the extra for a patio in the corner by the kitchen and bathroom and also for leveling the driveway for the pavers.

We each took one end and dragged it across the form tops to push the extra sand ahead of it
