Building in August & September on the Massachusetts Street beach, in Lewes, Delaware
Not as many sea nettles; a few moon jellies, and there weren’t any biting flies!
It was so nice to meet Elaine, who stopped by with her granddaughter Catherine. Diane, a friend I met here several years ago, came by to say she will be at the Ocean House for several weeks. And my favorite visitor today was Nana, with her granddaughter Talia. They came back two or three times to check my progress on the sand castle!
Here is today’s Castle, the 4th one this summer.
Today was my last day on the beach of the 5 weeks here in Lewes. This was the 27th castle I built, each one different. I met new people, and was happy to see old friends, as well.
God willing, I will be back next August, to build sandcastles.
It really was great to be back on the beach today! First time since Saturday when the rain came. This is Castle #26.
I was just about finished my castle #25 yesterday, at 3pm, watching a big gray cloud that the forecaster said would bring some rain to Lewes Beach at 7:00 last night. The rain started right at 3; a few drops at first, and a lot heavier. I gathered up buckets and carving tools, and took a picture of the now impressionistic looking castle, which the rain softened. Here it is💦 (I admit it looked a lot better than I did, after the rain got me!)
