June 4th, 2016:Big 'n' Little Chess

As winter yields to summer, snowmen yield to sand castles.
But some smart-alecky overachievers must go crazy with stuff to embarrass your skills in front of your kids.
There's even pro sand sculpturers traveling and doing paid performances at promotions to draw tourists to a resort area.

An elephant playing chess with a mouse? Yup, you read that correctly! Just recently world renowned sculptor (mostly known
for carving pumpkins), Ray Villafane, teamed up with artist Sue Beatrice to create an astonishing sand sculpture of a nine foot
life-size elephant named Chessie Trunkston playing chess with a field mouse named Hershel Higginbottom.
