Two Bags of Sand

Did you know that it is only going to take two bags of sand to lay the block for the foundation of our house? I thought that was strange. Until I saw the bags of sand.
The block layers are here today... In a few hours, they will have the foundation laid. What would have taken us a week (or more) is only going to take less than a day's work for the pros.

This is a bag of sand. A one-ton bag of sand.

Just by the picture, I thought you were making some audacious sand pit for the kids.

That is A LOT of sand.

How are the seams of the bag strong enough to withstand the pressure/weight of the sand?
