The Sandcastle Lady

.Breezy beautiful day today, for my 5 hour castle#18. I love that a sailboat anchored out in the bay behind where I build.

Ruby worked most of the day, working on her castle, that is fantastic!

Yesterday, Coco (about 4) wanted me to build the castle that I painted on my sign❤️
This is castle #17. 

Bobbi and her daughter Kristen brought Max and Coco to meet the Sandcastle Lady! It was so nice see them, and talk about today’s sandcastle. I will try to make a castle for Coco tomorrow 💕🏰

I taught Ruby last year, and she and her mom came back, and were building today. Their castle was still in process when I took the picture.🏰💕

I was able to finish my 16th castle, giving thanks to God for this beautiful day.

Rhoda’s mom told her she had 5 minutes till they had to leave – and Rhoda made a 5 minute castle!💕🏰

A great day on the Massachusetts Avenue beach today, with a nice breeze. Castle #15 looking out on a calm bay.

It makes me so happy to see kids building!

Here’s what I found when I arrived at the beach this morning.
Two nights in a row someone has destroyed my previous day’s work. I love it when it rains on the castle, because it always looks like an Impressionistic castle. This was feet, stomping. It’s hard for me to have to rebuild.
But Eli and his dad Hunter helped me scoop sand, to fill the holes, and I was grateful!
I did my best to build castle #13 before I had to leave the beach today.

So disappointing to see this today

Here’s Eli 9, his sister Elise, and dad Hunter, with their castle.
