The high temperature today was 63, which suits me just fine. In the sun it feels plenty warm. Out in the NNW wind, by the water, it was a little cool, but not bad at all.
You'll notice that the island folks have on sweatshirts and jeans, but one lady walked past me in a bikini and a man in swim trunks. I'm thinking they must be from the frozen north.
There has been quite a bit of beach
erosion in this area.
There was an area between access 4 and 5 with a good amount of shells. There were people out in the water looking and digging. I asked one man if they were having any luck and he said it wasn't great shelling but they were finding something now and then to keep them going. I noticed that none of them had many in their shell bags. But the area sure looked promising! I picked up a handful, but the nicest thing I had was a big Lace Murex.

Certainly a nice day Tootie, for the middle of winter. - Dave
Looks like it's going to be even a nicer weekend:)
Don't you just LOVE our winter weather in FL? Yes, we have a few cold days, but we can truly be on the beach collecting our shells almost every day of the year!!!

Wow! That's a huge drop off from erosion.
How did the "baby" like stooping over to look for shells?
Yeah, I don't care if it's cold...as long as the sun is shining. I wore long pants and a hoodie and covered myself with a big beach towel while I sat my chair in the wind. I needed a little sun!!!
Looks like a perfect day!! I would gladly take 63 degrees!!!
That beach erosion is quite something, Tootie. Wow. But it looks like such a beautiful day! Such blue skies!! And once again....I could just imagine the soft lapping of the water on the shore....
Hey, Tootie, what breed of dog is your sweet furbaby?
