Shell pile @ the North Jetty in Nokomis, Florida Has anyone been following i Love Shelling blog? Pam has been giving us the blow-by-blow of all the shells rolling in on Turner Beach a.k.a. Blind Pass. For dedicated shell lovers the sight of that big honkin shell pile growing upward on Blind Pass makes you want to call in sick to work, grab your shell shovel, & head south or whatever direction it may be for you to Sanibel. For those of you that are a plane ride away in the cold & snow; looking at those shells has got to be painful & my heart does go out to you. I live 2 hours north of Sanibel via I-75 or about 40 miles as the crow flies. I've sat at my computer for 3 days now looking, drooling, enlarging the pictures, looking again at my work schedule.... ratz - I'm not off till Monday. Where I live in the Venice/Englewood area we have some spectacular beaches. Each has their own personality. Englewood's beaches are more rustic & laid-bac
Yike, that turtle cut it a little close! I hope the nest doesn't flood. My toes are itching to get into that salt water, and I can't wait to see what has been unearthed when it's all over!
ReplyDeleteI cannot wait to get out there and find some shells! Hurry up and move on Debby!
ReplyDeleteLove your blogs!! Great video.
ReplyDeleteWe've had rain all day and right now the winds are swirling the rain in all directions. I hope we don't get anything worse...here or where you are either! Take care!
ReplyDeleteI love heading over to the beach when the weather is like this. There is always fun at the beach in Florida! Thanks for stopping by :)
ReplyDeleteI'd love to be on that beach listening to the pounding surf! It's so exciting.
ReplyDeleteHubby and I were wondering how the turtle nests were fairing during the onslaught of the storm surge. I sure hope all is well on the coast!
ReplyDeleteWe had to take a different route home due to a tree laying across the road. We've had so much rain from this storm, and a little wind, too.
You guys take care over there, and be safe!
be safe! We were just talking about the shelling possibilites this morning
ReplyDeleteWow - that wind sounds brutal. How did you not get blown away?
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing a wild bit of paradise...we've been watching from afar...our lawn people kept praying for rain so they'd have some work...this should do it :)
