OMG!!!!!:^
They are awesome. That was very sweet of you SW.
I have to tell you a story. I always comb our beach for shells. One day I was searching for shells (Mr. LF was ahead of me). My face was looking down the entire time and all of a sudden I saw a very unique shell. You'd have thought I won the lotto. I screamed for joy yelling to Mr. LF "I have never seen this type of shell here before. It must have come from some place in the Carribean."
Mr. LF smiled and said, well keep looking, where's there's one there's bound to be more. So I kept looking and all of a sudden I spotted a real beauty in the surf. A bright coral color conch. I said "NO WAY, this is awesome, I can't believe my luck, I hope I get them all before someone else comes along."
Finally, I said "a hurricane must have blown apart a shell shop in one of the resort areas, this many beauties couldn't have possibly washed up from the Gulf and landed on our beach."
Mr. LF finally busted out laughing at my amazement and said "no, they actually came from the shell shop on our seawall". He had been planting them every so often just to watch my reaction. d
Sorry, didn't mean to hijack your thread but it reminded me of it.
