\"Manatee<\/a>

Manatee or seal shaped rock<\/p><\/div>\n

Do you see the seal or manatee shaped rock in the jetty? Mary Jo Shannon pointed it out to me at Blind Pass. Yes! THE Mary Jo that we get lots of fun comments and feedback from on this blog. I ran into her and shelling buddy Sue on the Pass side of the jetty (since there still isn’t much shelling on the right side…. my old fave).<\/p>\n

\"Shelling<\/a>

Sue and Mary Jo (Michigan)<\/p><\/div>\n

Sue grew up shelling with her family then taught Mary Jo the treasures she could find on the beach. After finding her first shell, she was hooked too. Then she couldn’t believe how nice all the other shellers were and that they all wanted to show off what they found. They laughed and called it the “Secret Society of Shellers”. Yes! It is!<\/p>\n

\"Dead<\/a>

Dead Man's Fingers?<\/p><\/div>\n

They taught me something too. I told them I had found this dark brown sponge that looked like deer antlers but felt like styrofoam the other day but couldn’t find much info on it. They told me it is called DEAD MAN’S FINGERS.<\/p>\n

\"Live<\/a>

Live limpets Blind Pass jetty<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Live<\/a>

Live Limpets<\/p><\/div>\n

Even though I didn’t find many shells, I always love to look at the colors of the jetty rocks when there are STRIPED FALSE LIMPETS<\/a><\/strong> on them. So colorful! Do you think members of the Secret Society of Shellers are the only ones that would enjoy this?<\/p>\n

Don’t Forget……One More Day To Enter! Pass the word!<\/p>\n
