Back in June Doug and Dad built a sandbox. Dad usually takes on a project each time he comes over and well this was his project. They got the lumber from the pole barn, tried to use Doug's tools, and attempted to put it together. Well, the tools weren't right and it started to rain so the sandbox only got about half way done. Jump a head a few weeks and we see Doug finishing the box, well at least the wood parts. He lined it with black liner, edged it with edging from the garden and some bricks around the outside to limit the weeds. That was as far as it got. We had to go on vacation and camping trips. Finally it is August. Still we have a sandBOX but no sand. Mom and Dad come in on Aug 3 to help with party preparations. Dad notices there is still no sand in the sandbox. Lest he should go without a project for the weekend, he sees to it that we get sand for the sandbox. It's not that Doug WASN'T going to do it, its just that he hadn't had time. So while Doug worked on a few other things Dad found the sand and together they filled the truck and brought it back. 1 cubic yard of Sand. Yeah!!! It was in just in time for the party Saturday afternoon and it was a hit. In fact I found myself wondering where the sandbox had been all summer. It was doing a great job of keeping the kids busy!!!
