I like to get in the water too but my favorite way to shell is to comb the beach searching with my eyes to find something different. So I was very happy to see a nice line of shells on the beach near the Sanibel pier at Lighthouse Beach. Ahhh. Finding a few of my faves always makes me so happy. I know it doesn&#8217;t look like it but that shell to the left of the BABY EAR is a SLIPPER SHELL. It was just so long and skinny, I had to pick it up. When I get time, I&#8217;m gonna do \u00a0whole post on SLIPPER SHELLS. It&#8217;s amazing how may different ones there are.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a title=\"hand full of seashells lighthouse\" href=\"http:\/\/static.iloveshelling.com\/uploads\/2012\/10\/hand-full-of-seashells-lighthouse.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-12296 aligncenter\" title=\"hand full of seashells lighthouse\" src=\"http:\/\/static.iloveshelling.com\/uploads\/2012\/10\/hand-full-of-seashells-lighthouse-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"hand full of seashells lighthouse\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.iloveshelling.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/hand-full-of-seashells-lighthouse-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.iloveshelling.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/hand-full-of-seashells-lighthouse.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Clark found this gorgeous juvie TRUE TULIP.

It&#8217;s like Sanibel is having a JUNONIA-PALOOZA! Lori from Chicago has been looking for this shell since she was a little girl and she finally found it the place we were searching just a day before&#8230;. but she found it this morning at the Sanibel Pier.
