Every time we go to the beach, my son Dillon and daughter McKenna want to build a sand castle. Since I remember doing it with my dad, I have worked with them to come up with a standard format. All of our sand castles pretty much looked the same until a couple of years ago. Dillon, the engineer, decided that it should have a couple of rooms instead of just the front moat and massive blockade wall. So, we went about creating a few different areas in the castle. We always have a living room area, which has a flat screen t.v. and a couch to kick it on - sand style. Then we starting adding on other areas/rooms stairs and whatnot - it was getting a little stale...that was until last summer when we created the sand toilet. It got so much play that it is a stape in our castle now. We have had people come by and take photos of themselves on it or "about" it. McKenna, the interior decorator, roams about finding new "things" to adorn our castle and make it look really upscale.
Not enough time was spent on this one, as we unearthed some huge fishy thing in the sand that made us want to vomit, to place the flat screen t.v., barka-lounger or our sink for the toilet room...also, my engineer and decorator bailed on me - so I quit on this one. We did have a great time destroying it though...
What are some elements to your sand castle?
