Corpus Christi Ice Rays
Stingray Jack and the Port A Sand Guy went to the Ice Rays Game last Saturday night. They lost to the Laredo Bucks ':^( . There is a lot of things to do for entertainment in the Coastal Bend Area (I mean besides Sand Castles). I happened to get my picture taken with a group that is the unofficial ambassadors to Corpus Christi and the Surrounding area, the crush girls. Don't ever tell them you are bored living in Corpus Christi and there is nothing to do. They will prove you wrong.

Great Day in Port A
Beautiful day in Port A! First lessons of 2007 today. Looks like these girls might be entering SandFest this year.
Driving over the causeway to North Padre Island and seeing the sunbeams dancing on the water made me glad to be a Sand Guy in South Texas. It is truly a blessing to live here and to be able to share the fun of sand with other people.
Got lots coming up in February and March. Check back here for information and pictures.
