\"fullsizerender-4\"2016\u00a0kicked off the year\u00a0with a bang after very cold weather and a few storms brought gobs of seashells to our beaches of Sanibel and Captiva in January and February. That started the seashells flowing as\u00a0Clark and I caught the travel bug to explore many different shelling destinations around the world. And then there’s another travel bug I caught ;).. that was a very big “bug”. heehee<\/p>\n
