Unlikely source for scenery material

[tomustang]

For those of us that are just starting the scenery phase of our layouts I found an expensive source for some scenery material-namely sand. While my wife and mother-in-law were shopping at Michaels I did some looking around and in one of the aisles I found 1# bags of fine sand used for sand art and while some of the colors could not be used on a layout they did have at least 4 shades of brown sand ranging from light to dark. They ranged in price from $1.79-$1.99. Now I know where I can get sand without driving to my LHS. Just thought I would share this the members. Bob :hey:

You can get sand for free along the delaware near you, I found several spots behind alpha cement along the delaware that has lots of sand
