The cool thing is they're for Koman, a charity near and dear to both Terri and I so we always go, gotta take care of the boobies.

This little "gargoyle" in the middle a twelve year old kid did, pretty good.

Those look great.
So when it is over, do they blow of the sandcastles or what? Think I saw something like that on TV once!

I think that's a TV show, no, I think they just stockpile the sand up in a corner so they can use it in a few months, the sand is so soft and white, I don't know if you can see it that's the way the sand is down here.


Those are so neat, thanks Joey

Thanks C-Man

OIC.
I cant imagine the time it takes to design and sculpt one of those.

The hardest thing they say is they have a hard time keeping them wet, with the dry ocean wind blowing all day it drys them and they fall apart prematurely, so they have to keep squirting them with water in spray bottles all day until they vote on who wins.

That's badass...as is the color of the sand down there. First time I saw it was in awe.

Yes, it's almost white and it's soft on your feet.
