Sandcastle
I found this castle while I was walking the Road's End Beach one day; there was nobody else around. It had been abandoned. I studied it for a while, wondering about the people who had been there. With no written record, I could only guess that they had skills in engineering, they were industrious, used materials that were available locally. There was a certain beauty to the whole place so I'm guessing they took pride in their work. Ramparts and a moat says that they looked to the future with a thought for security and planned ahead. It must have been a somewhat advanced civilization that once inhabited this empire. No longer. It simply sits there waiting in the sand. Waiting for the inevitable wave of destruction. Could this be a land we once knew? Some unknown people have left a message in the sands of time. It is up to us to understand what the message said.....

Perhaps the message was " dammit Clyde, you did it again!!! The blueprints said to build 30 feet above the "HIGH" water line. Not 30 feet above the water line. How much have you had to drink. OK everybody it is the same old story as our last city " Atlantis", better known as "Clyde's first folly", let's pack everything up and find someplace else to let Clyde work his magic. For Christ sakes Clyde, sober up!!!
