It was an especially good day on the Sanibel today. On the beach at Island Inn<\/strong><\/a>, the weather was perfect (high 70s), the water was calm, there were piles of good shells… and I had Clark with me. That’s why I love this next photo… it’s everything I love all in one shot. Clark, the beach, the water and a ton of shells to pick through to collect in an aqua shell bucket.<\/p>\n

\"i<\/a><\/p>\n

My day was made.<\/p>\n

\"happy<\/a><\/p>\n

I wasn’t the only one loving the day either, if there’s a good shell pile it seems I always find Connie K.<\/strong><\/a> right smack in the middle of it. Ha! She can sniff ’em out!<\/p>\n

\"combing<\/a><\/p>\n

I also met another happy gal… Faith from Ohio. She is a ball of fun!<\/p>\n

\"Beach<\/a><\/p>\n

These are just a few of the beautiful shells she found. She found a LIONS PAW too but I didn’t get a chance to see it since she had already packed it up in her room. Happy.<\/p>\n

\"Beach<\/a><\/p>\n

Sitting on the big pile of shells (after walking to the right from Island Inn), I saw OLIVES, CONCHS, WHELKS, SCALLOPS and TULIPS but I had to snap a picture of this adorably tiny horsie candy (juvie HORSE CONCH). Omigosh- so stinkin cute.<\/p>\n

\"Sanibel<\/a><\/p>\n

Clark’s fave find of the day was of course that awesome ALPHABET CONE (first pic) but mine was this teeny tiny ROCK SNAIL SHELL<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"juvie<\/a><\/p>\n

I haven’t found a ROCK SHELL in a while and I\u00a0can’t recall if I’ve ever seen\u00a0one this small before. I love it!<\/p>\n

\"aperture<\/a><\/p>\n

Wishing on this shell tree that everybody gets to experience a day like this on the beach to feel this calm and happy about simple pleasures.<\/p>\n

PS- Thank you Heather<\/strong><\/a> for the heads up about the shell pile!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
