Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s about learning how to dance in the rain.

Sandfest or Slopfest?

Do you like this post?
Karen and I loaded our cars, hooked up the golf cart, and headed to Port Aransas for Sandfest 2015!  This year we rented a condo at Sea Mist Condos for our week long stay.
The weather had not been very good lately and the beach roads were nasty.....we found that out quickly in my car on our first trip down the beach road.  We spent Thursday in Rockport and had a yummy lunch at Paradise Key, plus some retail shopping therapy time.  Friday morning it was off to Sandfest to check it out....this time we took the golf cart.  There is only one word to describe the place......SLOP!

The poor vendors were trying to set up and it was a big mess!  We walked around, checked out the vendors and watched the sculpting begin. We spent some of our time driving around town, walking a nature trail and visiting the bird watching area.  We gave up on the idea of decorating our cart, the weather was just to nasty. Saturday we made a trip back to Victoria as Karen had an event to go to and I just went along to see Dale.

Sunday we headed back and the weather had improved, but the beach roads were still a disaster!  We checked out the finished sculptures, but didn't make the awards ceremony.  Sadly some kids got in one night and messed up the amateur sculpture's works of art!
