Noontime Fun

Today on my lunch break, walked at St. Andrews State Park and snagged several seashells poking out along the sand bank... love the hunt!

Sanibel Pickings by Rhonda

Thanks Rhonda for sending this pic of your haul from Sanibel Island - WOW! Only a TAD bit jealous LOL! One day I'll get there...

"Did not have to dig for these Cathy. Amazing here."

From Sundial to Barnacles!

It was an overcast day with some sprinkles but was able to get out a couple of times to collect seashells...

After less than 5 minutes digging, found with pretty Common Sundial


Round One




Walking back home, saw this piece of barnacle tossing in the waves and scooped it up




A few of my morning treasures


Round Two


The sun came out and dried up all the rain
So the happy happy sheller went out again to shell!

Weekend Finds

It turned out BEAUTIFUL both today and yesterday, so had fun playing in the sand with my trowel!

A few from this afternoon


And these are from this morning


It was a nice day


Took a few of my shells to Ruby's and she dipped them in muriatic acid which restores the color

Got Junonias? Tell Ruby!

My friend Ruby loves Junonia shells... can you tell?? :)

In her dining room...


In her living room...


Here's a broken piece I found last week and gave it to Ruby to add to her collection


On her microwave...


On her computer...


And on her fridge...




THANKS RUBY FOR SHARING YOUR PASSION!!!
