I went to the sand and gravel pit for a yard of sand. Told the woman at the desk, 1 yard. She weighed me in and said "go wait for the loader by the wash pond." Loader shows up and I held up 1 finger. He fills the 3-yard bucket and dumps most of it in the pickup. More? he signals. No, I shake my head. I weigh out at 11,570 lbs. Oof! That's two yards! Still an inch to go before the rubber bumpers hit the frame though. Good it's only 2 miles home but all up hill.
