My Shellbatical. I’d Like To Explain My Silence
It's been a while since I've shared my shelling stories of lovely walks on Sanibel's beaches finding beautiful treasures. I've had quite a few people send sweet notes making sure I'm okay and if my husband Clark is okay. So to answer the question of how we are doing? We're both getting better. Thank you all for asking and I'm so sorry I couldn't write back. I was exhausted to the point I had no voice. After 1,337 blog posts, 204 YouTube videos, countless Instagram and Facebook posts during 9 years- I've only posted positive, happy, uncontroversial and yes, at times I've been known to get embarrassingly silly. There are so many beautiful and fun things in this world to talk about so why not have fun learning about them? It's difficult enough to navigate through regular life, so it shouldn't be so difficult to navigate through the internet to find a happy place as a retreat. I created iLoveShelling to always be a happy place one can count on to always bring …

Whelks, Sand Dollars, Scotch Bonnets on Cayo Costa
Cayo Costa island was loaded with seashells on our iLoveShelling cruise with Captiva Cruises last week. We found WHELKS, OLIVES, TULIPS, CONCHS. MUREXES and even SAND DOLLARS so of course we had a fabshellous time. We had such an amazing group of people on our shelling adventure I didn't want it to end. So I'm especially sorry I couldn't get photos posted sooner to show yall how awesome Cayo Costa has been lately. But here's why I've been a little delayed... Sooooo.... a few days after the cruise, Clark had emergency back surgery. No worries- it was a success! He's absolutely fine now and he's already starting to feel like he wants to get to the beach. So watch out yall... Super Sheller Clark and I will be back on the beach very soon to look for some spectacsheller shells. But hold on.... lets get back to our amazing day on Cayo Costa! Here's a little video I put together of some of the many happy, beautiful faces I got to share my day with. And you wont believe all the …

Laura even found a WENTLETRAP. :) Happy beach day! We had some crazy happy shellers! Shelle Kelle found two cones within 5 minutes- shelltastic! OMG and look at how many ROSE PETAL TELLINS.

Shelleopatra Queen Nautilus For Shell Museum
I was very honored to be asked to help raise money for children's educational programs at The Bailey-Matthews National Shell Museum. Of course I said "yes" ... then they asked me dress as a Cephalopod. Uhhh well alrighty then. Hmmmm Do I want to be a SQUID? That'd be ... NO. Do I want to be a CUDDLEFISH? Uh...not so much. Do I want to be an OCOTOPUS? Eh... maybe. But ooooooo... the regal CHAMBERED NAUTILUS... oh yes! I wanna be QUEEN NAUTILUS! hahaha So I started making a NAUTILUS shell costume. Then I made a seashell crown (of course with a crown jewel JUNONIA in the center)... Then the shelling community came together to raise funding for some wonderful programs to support children's education at the Shell Museum. The Cephalebrities ...
