\u00a0After almost 2 days of high north\/west winds, I bundled up in my warmest clothes then hit the 45 degree beach this morning. I know some of you are experiencing much lower temps than that ….. but geeez….the\u00a0wind chill was killer. My finger tips almost froze off! This poor guy was not too happy either rolling in the surf but he was still healthy and kicking.<\/p>\n

\u00a0I was a little surprised but there was only a few left over shells at the jetty rocks on Captiva…<\/p>\n

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

One side of the sand bar in the pass had a few COCKLES and CALICO SCALLOPS…<\/p>\n

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

The other side had no shells but still had a beautiful view…<\/p>\n

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

\u00a0Then I went home. Late this afternoon, I couldn’t stand it. I went back to Blind Pass to scout out the beach again thinking the shells were finally coming in.<\/p>\n

Not yet still! But I did find Susan from Fort Walton Beach, FL. She found a few treasures including this double ALTERNATE TELLIN…<\/p>\n

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

\u00a0There were a few LETTERED OLIVES, FIGHTING CONCHS and COCKLES to brighten the day. I also saw lots of HORSE CONCH EGG CASES…<\/p>\n

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

Tomorrow, the mercury will start to rise. Oh thank goodness. And maybe we’ll see some shell piles too!<\/p>\n
