Rita said...: Bob's chance to pass on the family tradition. It's a closely held secret. ;); June 20, 2012 at 6:01 AM
Z said...: must be photo shopped? Now that I look, I don't see shadows and I don't see a darker little 'ring' around where the post 'goes into the sand'? Am I close! ?-0; June 22, 2012 at 6:58 PM
Rita said...: I don't know why I'm just seeing your comment Z. Not photoshopped at all. You don't see shadows because it was getting toward dusk and I was using a flash.

Bob says it's all in placing your arms and hands in the right position on the right pole. His oldest daughter got it, his youngest missed that your elbow goes into your abdomen.

Of course I knew I could not do it, but our grandson picked up the trick right away.
