Jonah (11) somehow was out of the water long enough to build a castle. James (8) built a great castle that collapsed when someone attempted to put a cone on top of his building. James persevered, and built a modern design castle with lots of steps. And I built Castle #4 today, and am thankful to be building and teaching great kids!

2nd day on the beach, and the second castle, and Avery 9 and Lainey’s castle
Lots of people stopped by today, and it was good to see them! Tamara stayed and visited; and Lecia told me I had taught her children Jack and Anna, who are grown now. Cindy brought her daughter, Lexi, whom I taught when she was younger. My walking friend, Vladimir, also came by.
Sunday, August 11, first day on the beach
it was so nice to see Vladimir, my walking friend; and Carol Denlinger; Aiden and his dad, Alex; Savannah and Alexandra; and Bryce and Reese. So good to be back on the beach!
August 10 through September 14 can’t come soon enough!
I am counting the days till August 10, when I will be in Lewes, building castles again! I’ll be on the Massachusetts Street Beach, and hope you will come by!
A quick trip in June, with grandkids
it was wonderful to be here with grandchildren, and supervising castle building (with a minimum of tools!)
My last day, and last castle
Today was my last day, and last castle. This was the 31st castle built during my 5 weeks here. Today, I met Kerah, from Pittsburgh. 💗 Pete came back today, and brought me a box of fresh figs!💗What a surprise to see Josh Farrell and Chrissie Farrell walking down the beach!💗
HIGH tide, and wind from the North East
VERY strong North wind today! It was nice with John and Audrey Bewley, for company, and help with water! Linda Mouradian came, and
visited, too. Maggie, 5, and Jack 10, came by, from Lewes. They were very excited to be going to Disney world tomorrow, for 11 nights!
It started out cloudy, but a great day on the beach
Today was the 29th castle of my stay. I have 3 more days of castles, til I return home on Saturday. I was SO happy to see Barry and Corey, from the Lewes Public Works this morning, collecting trash from the beach! They do a fantastic job! It was nice meeting Pete, a musician from Baltimore and New Mexico late today.
Nice day on the beach
It was a nice day on the beach until the clouds started to come in from the West, bringing rain, around 2:45pm
