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

SEA PEARLS and BABYS EARS were some favorite gems to be found at Lighthouse Beach this week. They blend in with all the other shells and bling so I feel so rewarded when I find one. It’s like I feel lucky that I saw the beauty in them when others may have passed them by without giving them a glance. That’s why beachcombers “get” each other, right? Beachcombers know there are hundreds of treasures the sea offers …but we just have to take our time to look for them.<\/p>\n

But I feel luckiest when we meet other beach combers on the beach like Lee and Susan (formerly of Guantanamo Bay<\/strong><\/a>) who turn into friends for life because they feel the same way. So much fun!<\/p>\n

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

We not only found those SEA BEAN treasures at Lighthouse Beach, we combed the beach at Gulfside beach…<\/p>\n

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

…Where we saw some nice SAND DOLLARS, OLIVES and a few other nice finds.<\/p>\n

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

Each beach we went to, we saw completely different shells and bling. We walked along Bowman’s Beach to find a few small shell piles…<\/p>\n

Lee caught a few SHARKS EYES rolling in the surf.

Oooooo… and look at that FLAT SCALLOP and ALPHABET CONE Clark found…  perfect!<\/p>\n

\"Beachcombing<\/a>
\nThis was my fave find of the week… a brilliant, bright orange RIBED CANTHARUS. Omigosh… Eye candy.<\/p>\n

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

But even if I didn’t find the RIBBED CANTHARUS, I found happiness…<\/p>\n

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

With some of my fave peeps …<\/p>\n
