Winds From The South

Winds From The South

I didnt see any new shelling spots at Blind Pass…. or Algier’s Beach in Sanibel….or the lighthouse today. The waves are kicking up and coming from the south with a cold front on the way so hopefully in another day or two we’ll see some good shelling. I saw the good sign of a few pen shells on Algier’s beach but not anywhere else- so this might be the best spot on Friday (or tomorrow?).

I met Terri and her family on November 11 at Blind Pass when the huge shell pile was coming in from Hurricane Ida.  I blogged about them and their finds on “Great Shelling at Blind Pass”. Well, they’re back at Blind Pass and still finding shells from that same pile (since there wasn’t anything new coming in). Terri’s son Bradley found this little LIMPET and a BUTTON to add to their bucket of shells. They said most of their shells today were broken but still very happy to be out on the beach. Aunt Dawn smiled and said “Even if we don’t find any good shells, it’s better being out here than any where else”.
