  1. You are such a lucky girl too - living in Sanibel! One day I will actually have to unpack my Sanibel shells (I have an entire crate of them!) and will have to show some of them off in a blog post.

    Thanks for you sweet comments on the Everything Coastal blog!

    1. I wish :) I live about a 2 hour drive north of Sanibel. If I had a boat it would be a 30 mile trip south on the SWFL coastline. It is my favorite place to go shelling & I visit as often as I can. I would love to see your Sanibel shells.

  2. It was snowing like crazy when I woke up today, and my feet felt like ice. And yes, I thought about how lucky I am, and about what a privilege it is to be alive --- but I ALSO thought about how nice it would be to be back down in YOUR part of the country! :)
