I Want One!

We spent the day Friday (22nd) on South Padre Island and went on a Segway tour conducted by Segvalley Tours.  Wow!  What a blast.  Three friends, Corky (Michigan golf friend in SPI for the winter), Ed and Cindy (friends from the park), and Mary and I started off by picking out a helmet, then a short class on how to ride the segway.  Real easy (they said you can’t fall off) and soon we were on our way.  The tour of about an hour and a half saw us visiting about 8 sand castles that are scattered around the island.  Each year they hold a competition late in the fall for people to build their castles.  They spray them with a mixture of glue and water so they will last a long time.
