Living up here New York State, anytime this state offers you something for free, you have to take it, right? Where I live, in the lake effect snowbelt, our local highway Dept. of Public Works, deposits a "good" amout of sand and dirt to our roads. I know this because every spring I need to clean up about a couple of pails of this stuff in front of my house.
Looking closely at the mixture this year, I noticed it was a very good mixture of sand, stone and fine grain dirt. It looks like it would make some great ground cover for a layout. Has anyone ever tried this before? If not, I have a few pails of it in the garage. If I get some zip-lock bags, maybe I can sell this stuff.

Doing my best to stay on track and to live each day to it's fullest, trying not to upset people along the way. I have no enemies.....just friends who don't understand my point of view.
