Well, not really the beach, but the pier & not really a day, but the long Labor Day Weekend. The US Sand Sculpture Challenge & 3D Expo 2013 is now history and all the tons of sand that were used to create the amazing sand sculptures has now been scraped up & hauled away (but not dumped into the bay!). Crowds of thousands braved the unusually hot & muggy weather to see massive, mind-boggling creations built of nothing but sand, water & sweat.

Despite getting sand into everything (after all, that’s what happens at the beach…), it was a hugely successful show for me. Thanks to all my new & repeat clients for their support & especially to my dedicated TEAM ROCKS: Mary, Donna & Red, without whose support, time, energy & encouragement such an endeavor would not be remotely possible.

Next show is TBA, but watch the website for new creations.
Next week: sometimes it’s good to be B.A.D.
