 Sunset and a super moon low tide with friends Moria and Marty, WOW! It was a wonderful trip. Marty was like a magnet for sandollars, Moria found a key hole limpet, cockles, a baby’s ear shell, tusks, rice shells, olives, sun ray venus, wendeltrap, bubble shells, and many colorful coquinas. Great conversations were had and mutual shelling friends were talked about. Kim the ever busy bee was brought up often. The Essential Beachcomber was also talked about.  The day was filled with great memories. Thank you Moria and Marty.

    Looks like it was a wonderful evening, with good friends, and lots of nice shells! What a gorgeous sunset too! Did Moira ever find her Kings Crown? I know she wants one badly.

    She didn't find a Kings Crown on our trip. But the week is young. Every day is a new day of shelling.

    What a beautiful sunset – I love the third shot from the bottom. Love it.

    Was that Horse Conch empty?

    The tide was very low. I haven't seen it that low in that part of the island for a few years. The horse conch was alive. So it stayed where it was.
