    The Sand Man

    This was taken in Myrtle Beach last month. This guy and his family are owners at the condo that Dawn and I stay at. He is really into building sand castles for his kids. He's so serious that he brings his e-tool with him to the beach!

    First shot is of the Sand Man at work. Second shot is a wider view showing his handiwork. The third shot is a bird eye's view (OK, it was shot from the seventh floor) of him taking photo's of his handiwork.

    Great shots!

    Those sand castles are....just....wow. Very impressive!! Sand Castles are fun to build. Last Labour Day I did some sand castle building at the PYPS weekend, I didn't get any shots of them. But trying to explain to participants to just 'build a sand castle" was hard, they just didn't get it!

    But it looked like you had a good time on your honeymoon!

    It's hard to describe a sand castle. You can tell folks it was so big, had a moat, etc, etc, and they just can't grasp it. But a picture is truly worth a thousand words when it comes to these scuptures in the sand.

    Thanks for the comments!
