Lima and Mindy have a winter place in North Fort Myers and come shelling in Captiva and Sanibel every year. They had such a great set-up with their sand chairs, shelling bags and laid back attitude- I wanted to just sit down with them, hang out and dig. Mindy found a nice big LIGHTENING WHELK (she&#8217;s holding up in the picture) digging in that &#8220;crater&#8221; right in front of her and Lima is showing off a beautiful FLORIDA CONE that she also found digging in that big pile of shells. They both said that it&#8217;s such a great day to go shelling for a while then have lunch at one of their favorites The Mucky Duck or The Green Flash when they are in Captiva or The Hungry Heron on Sanibel.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I could sit here and dig to China looking for shells.&#8221; A quote from Mindy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shelling at Blind Pass on Captiva Island in Southwest Florida<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5,36,38],"tags":[2049,2048,2082,71,80,66],"class_list":["post-492","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blind-pass","category-florida-cone","category-lightning-whelk-whelk","tag-blind-pass","tag-captiva","tag-seashells","tag-shelling","tag-shells","tag-southwest-florida","et-doesnt-have-format-content","et_post_format-et-post-format-standard"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.iloveshelling.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/492","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.iloveshelling.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.iloveshelling.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.iloveshelling.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.iloveshelling.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=492"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.iloveshelling.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/492\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.iloveshelling.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=492"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.iloveshelling.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=492"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.iloveshelling.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=492"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
