After a few weeks of scouring hardware stores for silica sand, I finally
tracked it down at a place here in Tampa called Colorock which is in the
Yellow Pages under Building Supplies/Wholesale. All of the Home
Depot-type stores I tried said they used to carry it, but now that
pre-mixed concrete "ready-mix" is most common, there's no need to carry
sand and conrete mix separately. Colorock is a building materials
wholsaler, so they have tons of the stuff for people who need tons of
concrete at a time where it's still cheaper to mix it instead of buy
ready-mixed.
Who ever thought sand would be so hard to find in Florida? :)
