Still Standing

 Today was windy with very rough surf, so we didn't take the boys into the "deep end" (to Mattie's disappointment -- James had fun bouncing around in the shallows).  But, Uncle Chris and Mike did help the kids build a gigantic sand castle (which included a deep hole for a while, until the beach patrol came by and said they needed to fill it in some so that it didn't collapse on anyone.

This evening and tonight, the uncles and kids went out to watch the waves wash the castle away -- but it was still standing by 10:30 or 11 PM!  (By that time, all the kids had gone to bed.)
