 After a fresh rain, the sand that washes down our driveway becomes wonderfully tactile--and irresistible to a 3-year-old with bare feet and an active imagination.

My absolute favorite—I hope it wins a ribbon
The image shows not only the required grit, but conveys also the joy of tactile exploration, the concentration involved in play, and summer fun with dappled sunlight, as well as a child's innocence—expressed through the blonde hair and small hands.

Not exactly grit IMO, but close... and oh it feels just wonderful.
The joys of summer.
