Harrison Sand Castles and D-Bo

A few weekends ago I went for another driving lesson. I drove from Chilliwack to Harrison where the sandcastle competition was happening. I don't think I've been to Harrison before, it didn't look familiar at all. It was a nice drive up there, I prefer driving in the country to driving in the city. (The previous week's driving lesson was downtown Vancouver) The sandcastle competition was $8 per person to see the sandcastles up close, but it was free to peek through the fence knot-holes.





In some place the fence was low enough that I could just barely hold my camera over the top and snap a picture. Not too bad of a shot!


It's amazing that these sand sculptures don't wash away in the rain or crumble in the sun. I wonder if they add something to the sand?





Back at home, uncle Warren and aunt Karen came over with their dog "D-Bo". He's a pittbull type dog, all muscle. He was so destructive! He killed one of the kid's ball in 2 seconds flat, and broke huge sticks with him mouth like they were nothing. He ran around the yard having so much fun until he saw the horses and cows. They stopped him dead in his tracks. You could tell he didn't know what they were, he'd never seen anything like them! He turned around and ran as fast as he could away from them. Too funny.

After all that running he was ready for a nap. He snuck in the house when no one was looking and made himself at home!
