A few years ago, during the Crosby family reunion at Sandbridge Beach, VA, I was able to see my husbands talent for sculpting sand. The race car that he designed and helped build was pretty incredible (and it was a huge hit with my nephews, who were 3 1/2 at the time).
During our beach vacation I was able to see more of David's talent and discover that this talent was passed on from his father, Bruce.
On our 4th day at the beach they started with a small project, a turtle.
Audra thought it was a great place to sit.
Day 5 saw the creation of a sand shark. (My only contribution to the sculpture was help in gathering some broken shells for the teeth. In this picture I was trying to keep Audra from wrecking it.)
Day 6 was our last full day at the beach, so David and Dad Cundey spent about 3 hours on their artwork. First they created the sea serpent, but that wasn't enough. So they added an alligator, who was attacking from the serpents left side.
Next came the shark, who was trying to pull the serpent back into the water.
And then a squid attacked the sea serpent, too. Three against one... it really was quite unfair! But it brought a lot of attention from those passing by.
