THE SAND FEELS SO GOOD
It does feel good to play in the sand. Sandcastles punctuate a beach telling you that kids are/were there.
Even backyard sandboxes are a hoot. Until you discover a cat dropping or two.
But there's nothing quite like beach sand and the vast area to build, sculpt, or in the case of my three-year old grandson Nathan, destroy.
I marvel at the real professional sand castle builders with precise instruments to cut, sift, and chisel. Sandcastle building contests are so impressive. Somehow they remind me of the Girl Scout Cookie contests they useed to have at the Galaria in St. Louis. The ones where they used thousands of cookies to build cars and windmills and all sorts of things.
Some great times can be had with a bucket or two and a shovel or two. All it takes is hours on the beach. Besides your creation and play time, you're rewarded with the best sun tan on your back. And if you make enough water runs, sunburned feet.
