....and some of them get paid to do this....oh wait that would be a job wouldn't it...how can that be......

so we're talking about 2 dollars an hour??? not exactly retirement material... not exactly eating and paying the rent material either... but it may be some kind of compensation... wheeeeeee...not for me tho

No, we're talking about $15.00 an hour. These sand sculptures bring the tourists and the tourists spend money. The merchants in the area pay the sand artists to bring in more business. No doubt $15.00 an hour is chicken feed compared to the big bucks you earn, but hey we can't all be as rich and smart as you.
