Becky recently bought a sandbox at a yard sale. Gotta love the deals you can get at a yard sale. This turtle shaped sandbox is roughly four foot in diameter with a cover lid to protect it during non-playing time. This will also deter cats from coming around and making it their own “outhouse”. I went out to get the necessary sand to fill said sandbox and failed to have faith in the owner about just how much sand is necessary. He told me a quarter of a ton, I saw the small pile of sand and doubled it. Note: Trust the man who does this kind of thing for a living. Now I have a trailer full of sand that will not fit in the small box. The solution: Build a bigger sandbox. Yep, just got this thing done and planning to build her a bigger one so as to not waste the surplus sand. That makes sense, right? Anyway. She had a good time in the sand. I even had some fun in it as well. Now Rory has a swing set, playhouse, sandbox, and other swing. If she gets many more things here, we will have to charge admission for kids to come down and play.
