Sand Castles and Elmer's Glue

 These sand castles are in Port Aransas.

 Started in November, they have a Frosty the Snowman theme.

After a segment is finished it's sprayed with a solution of Elmer's Glue and water.


A sign on the site says this is the longest lasting creation of the artist. Heavy winds and rain will eventually destroy the sculpture. I'd like know what it'll take because we had a doozey of a storm last night; with tornadoes in San Antonio and straight line winds blowing tractor-trailers over in Houston. We actually considered hooking the truck to the fifth-wheel for added stability. The rain was blown sideways so hard it sounded like hail hitting the trailer, and this sand castle is still standing!

Elmer's Glue?

They need to think about more uses for that stuff!
