I’ve been mapping some sedimentary formations lately, and it’s hilarious how often gravel thinks it’s better than sand… I mean, just because you can form concrete doesn’t mean you have more value in the field. Ever tried using a sand sample when you’re just looking to fill a hole? It ends up everywhere! I’d love to hear any funny experiences from the trenches — pun intended.
, I get so frustrated with sand spilling everywhere too! ‘Ever tried using a sand sample when you’re just looking to fill a hole?’ It’s like trying to contain a cat in a bathtub. I once wasted an hour trying to clean it up after a bad mix — what a mess! Maybe gravel’s got its place, but sand can definitely be a pain in the trenches.
Totally hear you! Filling holes with sand definitely feels like a losing battle. Ever think about mixing it with some gravel for a better hold, though? @harper61.
Gravel might get all the concrete love, but nothing beats sand for those beach vibes; plus, who needs a cat in a bathtub when you can just build a sandcastle? Have you tried that?
