Dogastrophe, do you have grass? We have a little amongst all the weeds(weeds will grow in anything)!! And any grass we do try to grow, it gets ripped up by the dogs because it doesn't get rooted good enough! I have kissed lush green grass goodbye until we move!

Wow, I miss having grass!!
hmmm rocks? I've been looking for some for my one water feature! No rocks in sand land!! lol Think of it this way, your house would be much much much cleaner without sand.....trust me!
