It was a great day on the water with Kim and Chablis. This trip was a long time coming. We were out the whole day. Chablis took many photographs and got some good shots of the dolphin on our way to the island. Our first stop was at Avocet Island where Chablis found a large whelk. The water was very clear as we motored to another location, the shells were excellent and the water perfect. Next it was off to the Tarpon Lodge for a delicious lunch. I enjoyed talking with Chablis about her future endeavors. The afternoon was spent at one of my favorite places just off the beaten path. Kim and Chablis enjoyed the afternoon and were a pleasure to relax and explore with.

    I wish I could have been there with you guys. I feel like I know you both. My perfect day would be with you three, Pam from iloveshelling, Aunt Kaybe and Sheri Zipp and Sam. That would be so cool!!! Oh yeah, and Lizbeth. Can't forget her. Who knows. Maybe one of these days.

    Roxanne, Kaybe is the coolest. She is old school shelling. Sheri and Sam are also hard core shellers

    I know Brian. I haven't had the pleasure of meeting Kaybe. But I have shelled with Sheri and Sam. Who knows maybe this October we will be on the island at the same time again.
