Roy L Hales/Cortes Currents - A hundred people turned out for Cortes Island's Sandcastle Day on Saturday, August 23rd, 2025. “It was a blast because all the families are so involved and all the kids are so involved. The day is absolutely beautiful. What's amazing is to see all the cooperation that the children have with each other and the creativity and the enjoyment that comes from this,” explained Nancy Silver, one of the judges. “It is an another community building activity and what could be better and healthier then families creating together or children alone doing it and feeling so empowered.” “Every person received some kind of award and that makes the little ones feel so great about themselves. They go on with their day, but something has changed in their lives and that is the beauty of this event.” Cortes Currents also interviewed two of the participants and a spectator. Monk and three of his friends were among the contestants: “It was a very fun experience and we did our own thing on each part of the castle. We based it off of a book called ‘Percy Jackson.' It's the Percy Jackson Palace, or Palace of Percy Jackson. We just rolled from there and built this really awesome different themed castle. We didn't really have a specific part that everybody worked on. We just did whatever we wanted.” Zyla Schmidt was in a team that included her mother, grandmother, a lady named Heather and two other kids: “It was really fun, It's kind of about the Children's Forest, like Enchanted Dragon Children's Forest, and I chose to do that because the Children's Forest is trying to get bought. I love it so much that I thought I'd make something based on that. I did a dragon. I didn't do wings, so it looked more like a dinosaur. There was going to be a city, then I turned it into a volcano because there wasn't enough time. We made paths and then raked out the rest. So you could go inside but not wreck the sculpture.” Bruce Hayden brought a professional architect's eye to the event. “One of the ones that I don't know who made it that is very beautiful is the two mountain, one of which looks like a volcano and village on the edge of the sea. The thing that I really like about it is that it's a beautiful integration of landscape and a sense of village. So it's humans meeting landscape in a really beautiful way. We had a good debate about whether it was a fortified village or not. My friend Heidi thought passionately it was a fortified village. I said, well, maybe it's a welcome spot that this is the place where you richly cleanse before you enter the sacred city on the edge of the ocean.” Cortes Currents: Are there any highlights you can think of? Nancy Silver: “For me it was with one group of kids who were so excited about what they did. They kept wanting to go deeper into the details, to take me through it and each part of it was like going into wonderland with them.” “I felt like the children were really in their fantasy world and no one was putting any boundaries on it. When children can go into that experience so fully and grab the adult and try to share with them that world, that to me, was the best experience.” A quick perusal of the Cortes Island Museum website showed there's been sandcastle days at Smelt Bay as far back as the summer of 1991, possibly earlier.

This is going to come as a surprise to my friends who know how technically challenged I am when it comes to building things, but over the years, my sons and I have built several houses together. Don't expect to see a pickup truck that says "Hutchcraft and Sons" on the side. No, and don't look for us in the Yellow Pages. Actually, our houses haven't fared too well. It wasn't because we didn't work hard on them - we did. And it wasn't because they didn't look good; actually they were pretty good. And it wasn't because they weren't big; we did some pretty good sized ones. But every house we built literally collapsed within hours of the time we finished building them. It might have had something to do with the material we built our houses from - sand on a beach next to the ocean. I'm Ron Hutchcraft, and I want to have A Word With You today about "The Sandcastle Syndrome." Jesus is involved in an incredible building project, and what He's building will never collapse. It will never be washed away by any tide or any storm. And He's inviting you to join Him in building it. Of course, you'll have to get out of the sandcastle business first. Jesus describes His building project in our word for today from the Word of God in Matthew 16:18. Jesus says, "I will build My church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." That's some powerful words. There's no doubt about what Jesus is building. He's building His church. Are you? Well, what are you building? We're all working on some structure. For you, it's wherever your dreams are focused, what you put a lot of your money into, what you put most of your time into. It's a subject of a lot of your daily conversations. Maybe you're building a reputation for yourself, or financial security for yourself, or a romantic relationship, a business, your income, a comfortable retirement. You may even be building a religious empire for yourself in Christian work. Problem: it's all sandcastles. Just ask my boys. A sandcastle is something you put a lot into that just can't last. Jesus is inviting us to focus what we have on something that will last forever - building His church. Even our Christian work could be building our own kingdom which won't last. You see, that church is not about an actual physical building. It's about reaching the lost people He died for; for adding them to His family. It's about building up the lives of believers. Are those the causes that get you excited, that you're passionate about? Someone has wisely said, "In order to pray, 'Thy Kingdom come,' you first have to pray, 'My kingdom go.'" Maybe it's time to stand back and take a candid look at your motives, at your great obsession, and at your top priorities. Is it getting lost and dying people to Jesus? Or has Jesus' building program taken a back seat to something you're building, something out of sand, something that a strong tide or a big storm can wash away? Jesus said "the gates of hell" itself would not prevail against what He is building. Look, you've got maybe at best 70-or-so years on this planet. Don't waste those years on building something that isn't going to last. Jesus is building His church. What are you building?

Inside waits the long-forgotten Sandcastle Society, a secret room filled with seashell mosaics and decades of kid-made journals begging for a new chapter.Join Delia as she redecorates the hideout, uncovers snapshots of summers past, and writes a riddle that will launch the next explorer's adventure. It's a story about finding friendship, chasing curiosity, and learning that even the loneliest vacation can sparkle with magic.

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Unexpected Joys: From Yoga to Sandcastles at Balaton Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2025-06-06-22-34-02-hu Story Transcript:Hu: Zsófia álmos mosollyal az arcán érkezett a Balaton partjára.En: Zsófia arrived at the shores of Balaton with a sleepy smile on her face.Hu: Egy hosszú hétvége után végre lehetősége volt pihenni.En: After a long weekend, she finally had the chance to relax.Hu: Érezte a meleg napsütést a bőrén, és hallotta a gyerekek vidám nevetését, akik a part mentén játszottak.En: She felt the warm sun on her skin and heard the cheerful laughter of children playing along the shore.Hu: Ideje volt kapcsolódni.En: It was time to unwind.Hu: Bence és László már várták őt egy pokróccal a homokban.En: Bence and László were already waiting for her on a blanket in the sand.Hu: "Zsófi, jól érkeztél!En: "Zsófi, you arrived just in time!"Hu: " - kiáltotta Bence a napszemüvege mögül.En: shouted Bence from behind his sunglasses.Hu: "Igen, kellett egy kis szünet" - válaszolta Zsófia.En: "Yes, I needed a little break," replied Zsófia.Hu: Leült a barátai mellé, és mélyet lélegzett.En: She sat down next to her friends and took a deep breath.Hu: "Ti mit terveztek ma?En: "What are you planning to do today?"Hu: " - kérdezte.En: she asked.Hu: "Bementünk úszni, aztán találtunk egy érdekes programot.En: "We went for a swim, and then we found an interesting program.Hu: Devi tervezi kipróbálni?En: Are you planning to try it?"Hu: " - mosolygott László, és egy közeli táblára mutatott.En: smiled László, pointing at a nearby sign.Hu: Zsófia ránézett.En: Zsófia looked at it.Hu: "Jóga" - olvasta félhangosan, és bólintott.En: "Yoga" she read aloud, and nodded.Hu: Pont erre volt szüksége: nyugalom és harmónia.En: This was exactly what she needed: calm and harmony.Hu: Ahogy a program ideje eljött, Zsófia a megadott helyszínre ment.En: When the time for the program arrived, Zsófia went to the designated location.Hu: De a parton nem jógaszőnyegek voltak, hanem gyerekek építettek szorgosan homokvárakat.En: But instead of yoga mats on the beach, there were children busily building sandcastles.Hu: Egy kedves szervező hölgy családiasan köszöntötte.En: A kind lady organizer greeted her warmly.Hu: "Örülünk, hogy eljöttél a homokvár versenyre!En: "We're glad you came to the sandcastle competition!"Hu: " - mondta.En: she said.Hu: Zsófia meglepődött, de a gyerekek izgatottsága átragadt rá.En: Zsófia was surprised, but the children's excitement was infectious.Hu: Bence és László már távolról integettek, boldogan nevettek.En: Bence and László were already waving from afar, laughing happily.Hu: Zsófia úgy döntött, belemegy a játékba.En: Zsófia decided to join in on the game.Hu: "Miért is ne?En: "Why not?"Hu: " - gondolta mosolyogva, és homokot szórt a kezére.En: she thought with a smile, and sprinkled sand on her hands.Hu: Kis idő után Zsófia komolyan beleélte magát a feladatba.En: After a while, Zsófia became seriously engaged in the task.Hu: Egy kisfiú, Dani, különösen ügyes volt a homokvár építésben.En: A little boy, Dani, was especially skilled at building sandcastles.Hu: Ő lett Zsófia fő kihívója.En: He became Zsófia's main challenger.Hu: Ahogy az idő telt, a várak egyre magasabbak és bonyolultabbak lettek.En: As time passed, the castles grew taller and more complex.Hu: A parton állók figyelmét ez a különleges párbaj kötötte le.En: The crowd on the shore was captivated by this unique duel.Hu: A végső pillanatokhoz közeledve Zsófia és Dani párbaja izgalmas lett.En: As the final moments approached, the duel between Zsófia and Dani became exciting.Hu: Zsófia bár felnőtt volt, mégis kihívásnak érezte a helyzetet.En: Even though Zsófia was an adult, she still found the situation challenging.Hu: Összpontosított, de Dani végül ügyesebben és gyorsabban formázta meg a homokot.En: She focused, but Dani ultimately shaped the sand more skillfully and quickly.Hu: A verseny végül a kisfiú győzelmével zárult, de Zsófia nevetett.En: The competition ended with the little boy's victory, but Zsófia laughed.Hu: Nem azért jött, hogy győzzön, hanem hogy szórakozzon.En: She hadn't come to win, but to have fun.Hu: A verseny után Zsófia és Dani kezet fogtak.En: After the competition, Zsófia and Dani shook hands.Hu: Bence és László büszkén jöttek hozzá.En: Bence and László came to her proudly.Hu: "Ez egy jó nap volt" - mondta Zsófia.En: "This was a good day," said Zsófia.Hu: A Balaton hullámai csendesen mosták a partot, és Zsófia úgy érezte, mintha új barátokra lelt volna.En: The waves of Balaton quietly lapped the shore, and Zsófia felt as if she had made new friends.Hu: Rájött, hogy néha a legváratlanabb események hoznak igazi örömöt.En: She realized that sometimes the most unexpected events bring true joy.Hu: A gyerekekkel és barátaival töltött nap megtanította neki, hogy néha érdemes elengedni a terveinket és csak élvezni a pillanatot.En: The day spent with the children and her friends taught her that sometimes it's worth letting go of our plans and just enjoying the moment.

It's Friday and we have Jason Bermas coming on for a little while to spear a few big stories and even tie a few together! Jonathan Oddi (who shot up a Trump Hotel years ago in order to be arrested and give his testimony against New World Order forces he witnessed at work while spending time around Puff Daddy) may be testifying in court; James Comey is on the hot seat after a social media post that seems to insinuate he'd like something bad to happen to Donald Trump, and more. When we're done chillin with Jason we're going to do a reel review and see what's on the audience's mind before the weekend kicks off.

Pittsburgh's got a lot to lose! If more state funding doesn't come through, PRT announced they'll have to make huge service cuts, like fully shutting down 41 bus routes and ending service after 11 p.m. Plus, the Trump administration's threatening to close Pittsburgh's HUD field office. Executive producer Mallory Falk and producer Sophia Lo discuss the latest. Plus, they explain why there might not be any competitive city council races on the primary ballot, how a special election will determine who controls the PA House, and why Kennywood and Dollywood are (kind of) having a crossover moment.

About two years ago, a small indie team released Bread & Fred on the unassuming masses. Starring two adorable penguins, the game became a viral sensation with its hilariously challenging gameplay that's been streamed to millions of viewers. On the heels of its success, Sand Castles Studio got to work on a free add-on for those looking for an even greater challenge. Dubbed The Lab, that update was released on March 7th. Just before that, I was able to wrangle the team together to talk with me about their indie developer journey and how the title blew up. The said team consists of David Lozano Sánchez (Programmer), Guillem Romero Martínez-Quintanilla (Game Designer), and Victor Valiente (Artist).

Sandcastles - feat. Trent Lowe (03-02-2025 AM) by Sundown Church

Can Stories Build a More Just World for Our Children?In this heartfelt episode, I share a powerful conversation with my 10-year-old son, Aidyn, sparked during our morning drive to school. His reflection on Donald Trump's proposal to eliminate the Department of Education stopped me in my tracks:“What does he think America is? His playbox? All he's doing is building up sandcastles.”To Aidyn, sandcastles are fleeting—ego-driven creations that crumble with the tide. And in that moment, I realized: His ability to see power so clearly didn't come from nowhere—it came from stories.Books have been our bridge to understanding justice, humanity, and the weight of power. Together, we've explored how power can lift or destroy, and how justice demands more than showmanship—it demands care, courage, and connection.But this conversation isn't just about politics—it's about parenting. It's about how we prepare our children, especially Black children, to navigate a world that often misjudges them. Through stories, Aidyn has learned to recognize injustice, challenge false narratives, and see beyond fear-laden stereotypes to the truth.Because storytelling isn't just an art—it's a tool for connection and change.In this episode, I also draw from the wisdom of:
