Anyone replacing there old sandstone side walks or know someone who is? I'm looking for some of the old sand stone walks used in some of the older neighborhoods I can come to pick up and it's OK if they are broken.

Call and leave message or PM me.

I have plans to put in a pond. The Broken Sand Stone side walk will be used as a walkway around it.

I remembered you had posted looking for sandstone,  I saw someone on craigslist had a couple of pieces for free if you are interested.

Thanks BenS, I just checked the post it looks like he has only 2 pcs. of sandstone and lives about 45 mins. from me, prob. not worth a drive. Again thanks for the heads up

Are you a member of the local freecycle  or any of the local Cafe groups?  YOu might find some in one of those places.

Good idea Mare.  I'll post a "wanted" on Toledo Freecycle for you and see if we get any bites.   Here is the link:

http://groups.freecycle.org/toledofreecycle/description

Request posted.    To join, just go to the link above and create a yahoo account.  There is a "log in" or "sign up" area in the upper right hand of the site.  You will then be able to join Toledo Freecycle (I use it all the time) and post wanted or offered items.  The only rule is everything must be FREE!

If you need more in the future you should post on Craigs list in Ann Arbor they've been doing their sidewalk replacement for the city.  Each neighborhood section has a different year in which they need to complete their sidewalk replacement.
