Watched this with my 19 month old grand son. He sat on my lap and pointed every time you picked up a shell. The after he went to bed, his mom (my daughter) watched a couple of your previous videos. She said, "I'm excited for her when she gets excited"
Ahhh! I love this so much Kelly! Your grandson sounds like a future sheller in the making! I love thatbhe and your daughter were watching too! Tell them both hello from me 😃 Yes...I get super excited 😄 Especially when I find something blue or rare! Just wait when we finally find that seahorse! 🤣🤣🤣 I am going to flip my lid!
Hi Spinster OKC! You are super welcome! I love the beach in any weather! It sure was chilly though. I had 2 pairs of pants on 3 shirts and a jacket. I also had hand warmers in my pockets! Haha. I think the blue clam shell was my favorite find of the day! Oh and the piece of the 1923 coke bottle! I have seen people use the large clam shells for soap dishes!
So very cool fish bone! Thanks for the info on them too!, I love all your wonderful shells you find on your exploring. I love all the different colors in these shells 🤩🤩🤩
Hi Shaney! Thank you so much for coming along on my beach adventures! I love New England shells 😍 - they are very different than tropical ones and my favorite color is blue so I am a little biased when I come across a few deep blue ones! Thank you so much for watching!
Another treat ... Plum Island Sea Cabin + coffee! What an interesting day! You had such a variety of cool finds. I think my favorite has to be that fish bone. That is going on my "someday" list around here!
Hello my friend! I am glad I was able to get this one out for your morning coffee!! It was around 12:30 this morning and the upload was taking for-ev-er. I thought I was going to have to delay it to today because my bed was calling me! But then...it uploaded! Hooray! Yes! That blue fish bone - whoa! And that large piece of Jasper! So many cool things! Thanks for tuning in with your morning coffee! Here's to another great day!
Hi Debrann! Me too! That large one with the black markings still looks amazing dry! Love it! Also, yes - I thought it would be good to include the info on the island. I have been meeting subscribers on the beach and it's good to have the info before the trip! Thanks for watching! See you next week on the beach!
I've been a fan of SWF Beach Life for a while so when Sharmon linked to you I jumped on over. Love the totally different types of shells you find, especially the huge Moon Snails and the dinner plate sized Surf Clams. I just have to put on a sweater when I watch your videos because seeing you so bundled up and cold makes me cold too.
I love your enthusiasm about shelling. You are absolutely adorable. You remind me of my granddaughter. Thank you for sharing your love of shells. Another great video!
Hi Roberta! Thank you! I get so excited when I find things! I LOVE the beach and searching it. I love that I remind you of your granddaughter! Do you go shelling together? Tell her I say hello and thank you for watching!
@@PlumIslandSeaCabin I'm land locked, so I shell with you. We use to live only an hour from the Oregon coast. We would take our kids and grandkids to check out the tide pools and walk the beach. It's been almost 20 years since I felt the sand between my toes. We live in Idaho which is about a 10 hour drive to the coast. Makes me sad, but your videos truly make me smile and I feel like I'm shelling. Thank you for that.
@@robertabessey7990 I am so glad I can take you to the ocean with me! Also...the Oregon coast is on my beach bucket list! Sounds and looks so amazing! You and your family must have had a blast going there. I am sure your heart is full of great memories! I would love to check out the beaches and tide pools there someday **sigh** 😍 I put my videos out weekly - so I will see you next week on the beach ❤
Wow! So much Jasper and Agate maybe?? No used to seeing rocks in the open like that. So beautiful! And shells forever... Glad you took us along with you. Loved seeing the live critters. Enjoy your spoils. Stay safe and be well.🌞🌊❤
Hi G.G.!!! Thanks for tuning in! Yes...we hit a big score! It was awesome! Such a good time - loved every minute of it! I am just clear coating the rocks now. I love them so much. I wonder about a rock cutter and polisher. That could be amazing!
That sounds like fun. Suggestion? Try seeing if someone in your area has one. For the size of the rocks you're finding you might need a floor model. I've been to a few local gem and geode shows. The ones they use are heavy duty! If you're talking something less then a quarter sized, you may be able to go smaller. But it sure is cool to have them cut right in front of you!!😀❤
@@g.g.armbruster4668 I love that you know about this! Thanks for all the info! Yes, that would be spectacular to see it cut right in front of me! I can picture it sliced 😍 maybe I'll post in my town page to see if anyone has one or cuts stone.
Hi Kristin! Thank you so much for watching! Sending you an email today....just got an AMAZING delivery. I am still in shell shock 😲 Thank you so much! 😍 Email to follow!!
Hi Susan! Yes it is! It's going to be 70 degrees tomorrow!! I am so excited! But not letting my guard down. A few years back we had that April 1st blizzard! New England is crazy 🤪 😜
Hi Susanne! This is perfect timing! I am going to be filming a quick video this week showing some shells that subscribers sent in. I can definitely show you how I display. I have a more organic/ artistic vibe because I display with pottery and some art pieces and beach wood I find interesting. But I will show you in that upcoming video. Great idea! 👍 Also, thanks for watching ❤🌊✌
Hi Jennifer! You are so super welcome! Thanks for watching and I'm so glad that you got and love the sweatshirt! I am making more and also hats, t-shirts and long sleeve t-shirts. Oh and stickers! Lots -o- fun stuff coming! Did you get the shell I put in the box with it? I can't remember if I put one or 2, but I wanted to include some bonus beach loot as a thank you!
Hi Nancy! I like that..."sloggers" - I've never heard that before and I love it - such a fun name! 😀 I plan to get some before next fall! I am hoping the weather changes soon and we get that warm summer air. I can't wait to ditch my shoes and sock all together and hit the beach wearing my flip flops and a sweet teal pedicure :) **Sigh** coming soon I hope! Thank you so much for watching!!!
Hi Judy! Yes! Agreed and I do it too! I think it's because there are so many of them and they get taken for granted. Same with the hard shell clams. I definitely need to give them more love because when I pick them up and inspect them they are gorgeous 😍 I will be sure to give them the attention they deserve. Thanks for shelling with me!
I feel bad sitting here in warm Florida while you are freezing. Thanks for taking me (virtually) with you! I love that blue shells and the dog whelk. The rocks are very pretty, too.
Hi Sandy! That section of the beach is one of my most favorite places to shell! There are different sections of the PI coastline that are good for different things like sand dollars or scallops, but the rocks seem to have it all. Such a fun place to search! I am so glad you are warm - it has been chilly here, but it's going to be 70 of Friday so we can't complain! Also - I am driving down to see my parents in Florida soon! So I will be warm and toasty too! Thank you so much for watching!
I love the moon snails!! I also wondered what the blue shells were. I am a blue lover so it always catches my eye. I think you called it a blue oyster and it was gorgeous!!! I love watching and I love the longer videos but then I feel bad because you're sooo cold. Please be careful. Happy shelling!!! ❤🐚🦀🐌
Hi Tammy! Blue is my favorite too! That was a blue Atlantic Surf Clam. It's rare to find them on the island that color. It certainly was cold that day and we got a few inches of snow later, but it's all melted now. Warmer days ahead! Thanks for watching!
Wow so many wonderful treasures today. Loved seeing the live ones too. Glad you got warm in your car. Looked really cold out there. Thanks for taking me along. Take care 😊🌻🐝💜
@@PlumIslandSeaCabin it was amazing. Any way I can get my hands on some shells lol It was wonderful but oh you looked so cold. I have a few I bought at the dollar store but oh they don’t do shells justice. The ones you find are wonderful. I think I might have found me a new hobby. I dream of having a beach themed bathroom someday. 😁 hugs 🤗 back my new friend 🐚😊🌻🐝💜
Hello hello! 👋 I am going to look that up! Thanks for the tip! It's definitely cool whatever it is. 😎 I'm loving it so much!! Have you gotten to the refuge?
@@PlumIslandSeaCabin going Friday!! There's a map that shows that serpentine is found on the refuge, I found some there but I have a huge beautiful chunk that I found on Nahant where I grew up
@@CherylAnn2222 Awesome! I am so happy you get to go Friday! It's supposed to be 70 degrees! I will be at work - bummer. But report back with any amazing finds! I'm sure you will find something great!
Enjoy your beach walks. I never get tired of searching the beaches in Southeast Florida. I am an RN and concerned about your hoarse voice. Have you had it checked out? Forgive me if I am getting too personal . ❤️
Hi Tina! Thank you so much for watching and coming along on my walks! ❤ Also, that is so super nice of you to check in on me - not too personal at all. I am an open book and people ask me about it often. When I was 33 I had thyroid cancer and when they removed the tumor my vocal cord was damaged and paralyzed. I had no voice for an entire year 😳 Since then I had a couple surgeries to try and get a decent voice and though I sound completely different than what I used to, I can speak! Hoarse, but people offer me cough drops a lot so it's like getting free candy for the rest of my life 🤣😆 I've had a few questions about it so I'm thinking of mentioning it in a upcoming video so people don't think I am always sick 🤷♀️🤔 But, so very nice of you to check on me - thank you my friend. Big hugs to you!!
@@PlumIslandSeaCabin I am sorry you had thyroid cancer. If you hadn't had your thyroid checked I was going to suggest it. Glad you have a voice even though it's a new voice. ❤️
Thank you for being so brave and facing the elements to find and share all the beauty the ocean offered today! How do you keep from getting sick? Take care!
Hi Mabel! You are so super welcome! Honestly I don't want to jinx myself, but I haven't had even a head cold in almost 3 years! It must be all that salty beach air keeping me healthy! Haha. Thank you so much for tuning in!
Hi Gayle! I try all kinds of gloves, but I don't like how any of them feel. Haha. I have a hard time grabbing things with them too. Also...I have this weird thing where my finger tips go numb in them 🤷♀️ strange right? I have pocket warmers though. So when my hands get really cold I pop them in my pockets for a few 😃
@@PlumIslandSeaCabin , oh wow, tips go numb! So glad to know you have pocket warmers❣ How about water insulated rubber boots? Put pocket warmer inside too?! How ever much i love your vids it bothers me to see you get so frozen. I know how it hurts to have frozen feet/hands. They take forever getting back to warm, ugg.
@@gaylescovel7308 Oh you are so kind 🤗Yes! Good idea for when I get the weatherproof boots! The hand warmers really help my hands so I imagine they will do the same for my little piggys 😃 I am hoping to be in flip flops soon! ☺️ and then I will be looking for ways to keep cool!
@@PlumIslandSeaCabin , if n when you do use hand warmers or foot warmers (we have those for boots here) if poss put the hand warmer ontop close to toes. Might be tricky, loosen the laces if need be. Or under arch perhaps. If boots are wide or extra roomy in toe area, well you the idea. Oh geesh, the mom in me, 🤦♀️. I know you have common sense, sorry.
@@gaylescovel7308 These are all really great tips and you would be surprised at how often I lack common sense 🤣🤣🤣 Thank you for being so thoughtful and caring ❤
Hi Sheryl! Thank you so much! I appreciate the support! Where are you coming from if you don't mind me asking? The purple sand can be found all along the 11 miles of coastline, but I notice larger patches of it from lots 6 to the end (Sandy Point). Be sure to read the details I have written in the video description. The refuge beaches are going to close on April 1st. I want to make sure you plan your visit while the beaches are open 😀🌊✌❤
@@PlumIslandSeaCabin Oh no! We are coming up from Pennsylvania. We were leaving on the first. Visiting from the first to the third. May I ask why the beaches will be closing and for how long?
@@sheryltoscano4852 Yay! I have family in PA in Bradenville! Awesome! Have a safe trip. So, yes...the refuge beaches will be closed from April 1st through August with no beach access, but at the very end after Gate 7, there is Sandy Point which is a reservation beach owned by Ipswich MA and that will remain open. Those are the Bar Head rocks (where I shelled in my last video). Good shelling - be careful on the rocks - slippery. They close the beaches to protect nesting plovers. Plovers are endangered and in the 80's their numbers were very low and have been dropping since. Since they have been closing beaches to protect them, their numbers are rising! 😃
@@PlumIslandSeaCabin Very cool! I am not exactly sure where that is in PA; I originally am from California and don't know much outside of where I live. 😝 But still cool with the connection. Ok. Well, with the reservations and all we will still come up to see your beautiful state and hopefully find some amazing shells. NJ sucks for shelling...IMHO! Thanks so much for taking your time to chat with me. Enjoy your evening...night. Ooops! Sorry. Love your videos! 🌊🐬💜
@@sheryltoscano4852 Awesome! Safe travels. If you have questions while you are here, reach out. Also, be sure to check out Newburyport...right over the bridge from Plum Island. It is charming New England for sure - you will love it. Have a good night! ✌🌊❤
Hi Jeanette! Thanks for always coming along! Hmmmm....I don't hear any metallic noises. Let's troubleshoot - I like a good mystery! Is it maybe the wind you are referring to? It was very windy and has been this winter. Do you hear it in other videos you watch or only mine? Could it maybe be a loose speaker wire or speaker feedback?
@@trinawright4137 Hi Tina! I'm so curious about this sound. I am listening to the video now and not hearing anything :( if you have a chance, can you give me a time stamp in the video of where you hear it? I only hear wind. Lol it was so cold. I would love to be able to solve it so that it doesn't happen going forward. Any help would be super appreciated!
@@PlumIslandSeaCabin We only hear it when watching YOUR videos on our smart TV--no one else's TH-cam videos. We decided to watch your videos on the computer and didn't hear the sound at all, making it seem like a problem with our TV speaker. But then why don't we ever hear the sound when watching SWF Beach Life, Northern Mudlarks, Dirty Secrets of Scotland, etc., etc? (It makes NO sense at all to us, but I guess from now on we'll just watch your videos on one of our computers?!?)

Thank for getting out in the cold, great shells today. That first clam shell with the blue inside would be so perfect in my 1963 blue bathroom.

Hi Kim! Yes - you know how I love those blue shells! So many today. Other than the weather - amazing beach day! Thanks for always coming along!
Thank you for all the great advice and information in your description!

Most shellers overlook the blue muscles and I don’t know why, personally I love the color of them.

Be sure to read the details I have written in the video description. The refuge beaches are going to close on April 1st. I want to make sure you plan your visit while the beaches are open 😀🌊✌❤
@@PlumIslandSeaCabin Oh no! We are coming up from Pennsylvania. We were leaving on the first. Visiting from the first to the third.
May I ask why the beaches will be closing and for how long?
@@sheryltoscano4852 Yay! I have family in PA in Bradenville! Awesome! Have a safe trip. So, yes...the refuge beaches will be closed from April 1st through August with no beach access, but at the very end after Gate 7, there is Sandy Point which is a reservation beach owned by Ipswich MA and that will remain open. Those are the Bar Head rocks (where I shelled in my last video). Good shelling - be careful on the rocks - slippery. They close the beaches to protect nesting plovers. Plovers are endangered and in the 80's their numbers were very low and have been dropping since. Since they have been closing beaches to protect them, their numbers are rising! 😃
@@PlumIslandSeaCabin Very cool! I am not exactly sure where that is in PA; I originally am from California and don't know much outside of where I live. 😝 But still cool with the connection.
Ok. Well, with the reservations and all we will still come up to see your beautiful state and hopefully find some amazing shells. NJ sucks for shelling...IMHO!
Thanks so much for taking your time to chat with me. Enjoy your evening...night. Ooops! Sorry.
Love your videos! 🌊🐬💜
@@sheryltoscano4852 Awesome! Safe travels. If you have questions while you are here, reach out. Also, be sure to check out Newburyport...right over the bridge from Plum Island. It is charming New England for sure - you will love it. Have a good night! ✌🌊❤
Has anyone figured out what the annoying metallic clicking sound is, that we hear in every video?
Sorry...I don't hear any weird or metallic sounds
Hi Jeanette! Thanks for always coming along! Hmmmm....I don't hear any metallic noises. Let's troubleshoot - I like a good mystery! Is it maybe the wind you are referring to? It was very windy and has been this winter. Do you hear it in other videos you watch or only mine? Could it maybe be a loose speaker wire or speaker feedback?
@@PlumIslandSeaCabin I heard it too it sounded like someone chipping rocks off of larger rocks 🤷
@@trinawright4137 Hi Tina! I'm so curious about this sound. I am listening to the video now and not hearing anything :( if you have a chance, can you give me a time stamp in the video of where you hear it? I only hear wind. Lol it was so cold. I would love to be able to solve it so that it doesn't happen going forward. Any help would be super appreciated!
@@PlumIslandSeaCabin We only hear it when watching YOUR videos on our smart TV--no one else's TH-cam videos. We decided to watch your videos on the computer and didn't hear the sound at all, making it seem like a problem with our TV speaker. But then why don't we ever hear the sound when watching SWF Beach Life, Northern Mudlarks, Dirty Secrets of Scotland, etc., etc? (It makes NO sense at all to us, but I guess from now on we'll just watch your videos on one of our computers?!?)
