You might just try adding a heavier grade (bigger) type of
sand to the mixture. There alot of different grades of sand and just
getting something of a bigger grade may prevent it from sinking and
disappearing.

Several
people have said this to me, however, this becomes a very soft, powdery
sand and becomes extremely deep which is very hard on the horses'
legs. That's why I'm trying to find something to give it a little
substance.

You make a good point here. We are
probably just going to do ground work in the round pen from now on, not
riding. So maybe it won't be a continuing problem for
us.

Ha, ha, several people have already asked for it.

How
descriptive, ha, ha. I can just imagine what you must
mean.
Thanks for the reply.
