I'm getting red X's

When I lived in FL, we had a huge "beach restoration" project. It was millions of dollars and this was 20+ years ago. They put a huge pump out into the ocean and pumped the sand back onto the shore. The cool thing was all the shells, shark's teeth (huge ones - as big as your hand), etc. that appeared on the shore.

We really weren't meant to build on the beach. I vacation in the Outer Banks every year, and storm after storm is taking the houses down. Unfortunately, FEMA (i.e. you and I) builds them right back up again.
