When I went to the beach this afternoon, I took one of my old signs. I was pleased and astounded to see my new sign that was missing saved, and put up next to the dune with my chair and sand toys!
Thanks be to God, and that kind soul!
High wind, high tide took my castle and sign
The beach was flat, and my Sandcastle Lady sign was nowhere in sight.
August 15, today’s castle
The strong North-east wind that came in, brought the tide up really high, taking a bit of yesterday’s castle with it. No sun today, with a few sprinkles of rain.
Some more castles
Back in Lewes
So different, and sad, not to be teaching families and kids, because of Covid19.
Last day on the beach
Last castle till August of 2020, God willing.
An Alligator, on Sunday, to guard the castle –
Since the castle from Saturday was pretty much intact, I thought it would be a good time to carve an alligator!
Late day castle today
I saw the 6:45 ferry leave, but finished! My beach days are now down to two more, before I have to go home to Pennsylvania on Tuesday.
A Castle, by Committee
Brother and sister Colton 7, and Dakota 6, from Swarthmore, PA, teamed with sisters Virginia 5, and Vera 3 1/2, from Delaware, to build a castle together. They worked well, taking turns with tools, and getting along.
Friday warmed up, as did I!
I had about an hour of prep work before 4 hours of building and carving, but needed another 20 minutes to finish the West side of the castle! The shadow stretched all across the dune path at 5:45pm – food and wine were calling me!
