Sandy Labor

Labor Day weekend arrived and the Alvernaz's youth scattered for a weekend of fun. The gorgeous girls, (and Dominic) traveled to Cold Springs to hang out with friends, enjoy the forest and Pine Crest Lake. Meanwhile the other three brothers headed up to Point Reyes for the 33rd Annual Sand Sculpture Contest at Drakes Beach. (Which brother had it better, you decide.)

The boys came in second out of 26 teams with their Transformer Buried in the Sand. First place was swept away by a sculpture referencing the earthquake in Napa Valley. Timely to say the least. 

For those who would like an overview here is an interesting article on the competition. Sadly they don't have any pictures of the first place sculpture, so I'm still not sure what it looks like. Also the picture of Joey isn't good at all, but it does have some other pictures. 

And now, what you have all been waiting for but didn't know until this moment, Casey's 7 minute recap of their success.  


The San Joaquin Sand Fleas next competition on the books is October 19, 2014 in Carmel. (For more info see the Carmel by-the-Sea events page.)  

We hope to see you there.
