The boys had a dry or rather wet practice run at making sand castles yesterday in preparation for today's event. They are combining with another friend and planning to win, of course. I expect that if the rain holds off that they will have a great deal of fun and get delightfully sandy and hopefully creative. They are 
already planning what utensils to take and use to make towers. There was also much discussion about the need for a real moat. Many buckets of water were lugged and enjoyed while completing the trial castle yesterday. At times it looked and behaved more like a volcano, but who cares. We will take pictures of the event and comment on the winners later on today.
Son Chris and I once entered a castle-making contest in San Diego. We had a great deal of fun but were unprepared for the competition that designed and made very elegant castles and decorations. We did have fun and enjoyed watching the navy ships stationed nearby where the competition took place. The winner certainly deserved the honor, and we enjoyed the fun of the whole thing.
Winrock Mall in Albuquerque displayed very creative sand castle structures for several years, and when we were walking the mall for exercise, we certainly enjoyed watching them being built and carefully looking at all of the items displayed. Would that we were all so creative!
The boys played all afternoon and made more volcano/castle types with lots of running water. Such fun!!! Finally cookies and lemon aid for all of the participants.
