A Day Out of School

 Today I took the day off from school and traveled with my family + third cousin + third cousin's friend to the beach where we successfully brought up the value of Connecticut Tourism by a landmark worth seeing. Introducing.........The Hanging Gardens of Babylon.

  Before you is our landscape with the three primary laborers. Josh Lagan who offered substantial support to the operation was injured and could not be present for the final picture.

We arrived at 10:00 AM and the promised 80 degrees and sunny weather was tardy. 

Despite the foreboding weather and serious lack of beach going beverages we managed to break ground with enthusiasm. 

Shortly after we broke ground our reinforcements arrived with speakers an Ipod and the previously mentioned beverages.

Slowly, after hours of careful planning by our programmers.... 

...expert moderating skilzs.

....first rate photographers.....
  

....artistic designers.....

....focus....

....and a sacrifice....

We managed to sculpt the base elements of beach into a piece of art. Following are just some pictures of the finished work after roughly 7 hours of work using 6 shovels, 2 buckets, washed up lumber and several thousand pounds of sand

Small Temple to Ishtar 

The Entryway 

Combined these two pictures make up the entire working force of the castle. And now I'm done. I hope you all enjoyed our sculpture. I'm sure by now that some singularly unappreciative thugs have bulldozed our hard work into nothingness. May they have received many bruised bones in the process. "Curse their foul feet"
