Perfect weather made for perfect sand-building this afternoon — and homeless people couldn’t be happier.
The 9th annual “Castles in the Sand” drew more than 150 participants. Hundreds of spectators admired their handiwork: animals, mythical creatures, half-clad women, even a few castles.
The event raised thousands of dollars for Homes With Hope, which provides facilities and support services to homeless people.

A Greek goddess.
Jeff Wieser (Homes With Hope CEO) and a lobster. These are not sand sculptures.
The Inn at Longshore (patio view). Scott Smith, chairman of the Longshore 50th anniversary committee, is on the right; he built this with his son (Cole Prowitt-Smith, middle), and RTM member Eileen Flug (left).
"Politics as Usual," say the shells. Yes, they all do have their heads in the sand.
Sun,sand and sea that’s all I need
Very cool!
