"Instrumental" by Team "Trowel and Error"
The next episode of "Sandblasters - Extreme Sand Sculpture" was filmed this past weekend in San Diego. Can't get too specific - don't want to ruin the show for everyone! - but South Padre Island and the Lone Star State were well-represented this time, and sandy feet came home with a big --- smile on her face. Thanks in no small part to the efforts of her way-talented partner Kirk Rademaker.
The show is scheduled to debut on the Travel Channel on March 4, 2006.
See more photos here.
All in all it was a great weekend for the Sons of the Beach Sandcastle Wizards! ¶ posted by Lucinda @ 5:19 PM 0 comments links to this post

"Fit for a King"
"Sand Sculpting Sensations!"... a quote from the Virginian-Pilot on Saturday Sept, 30th, 2006....
"Walter McDonald, known as "Amazin' Walter", and his daughter Christy (the clown) McDonald, of Padre Island, Texas, work on their sand sculpture "Fit For A King" on Friday afternoon at the Virginia Beach Oceanfront on the first day of the North American Sandsculpting Championship."
And when the results were in on Saturday "Fit For A King" won the peoples choice award, the sculptors choice award, and 3rd place in the team category.... eeeeha!
