Each summer, when our family gathers in Bethany
Beach, Delaware, we set aside a day for the design and
construction of a ballroll. It's a tradition we've held for
over 15 years. Each year we try to outdo ourselves, either
in complexity or scale. |
|
We start early in the morning, shoveling
sand into a pile and carrying water from the ocean to wet
it down. |
|
Once we have a decent pile of sand built up, we need to pat
it down and refining the shape. |
|
Then we work on the various tracks and build in some stunts
and details. |
|
Sometimes catastrope strikes! |
|
That's why we have the strictest
Quality Control Specialists on hand!
|
|
Then
it's time for a few finishing touches... |
|
before standing back to admire a job
well done... |
|
and
taking a well earned rest! |
