We even stopped by our stone supply place for a few big rocks to hide more of that ugliness. It felt like we’d found the Arc of the Covenant.Īt 4 bucks each, 2 bucks cheaper than the Home Depot plastic thingy, “We will defiantly take 5” Unfortunately, the other “Dallas” location was also really in “Garland”…….about 20 miles away.Ĭould we do it? Could we make the 20 mile drive in about half an hour?Īfter a stop for gas and Red Bulls (AND a turn-around back home because we left in such a hurry that the motion sensor on our alarm was still active…….and a Doberman was running loose in the house) we made it to ABC Supply in Dallas/Garland.

(Why on earth would they want people just Stopping By their business?) They closest purchasable ones we could find were all the way in Ft Worth….but no address was listed. So we headed home and Googled Concrete Splash Block. The first big rain and those things will be in our neighbor’s yard.ĭitto for Lowe’s, and Ace Hardware. Just gasp at the crap that Home Depot is passing off as splash blocks……. So off to “Gay Church”….or the Home Depot, as most people call it. No idea what to call them….splash box/splash blocks….whatever they are, we need them.Ī beautiful Saturday morning seemed like the perfect time to do something about this. You know how sometimes something seems so simple? And it just isn’t?įor over 4 years I have wanted to add concrete rainwater “thingys” under the downspouts from our gutters….Currently the water just pours out onto unattractive hunks of concrete.
