    When you found the 2nd rose with it's tiny spikes intact I was flabbergasted! You should have heard me - Oh my God, I can't believe it! How incredible! So happy for you and thankful for your videos.

    What an absolutely amazing episode, shell friend! While acknowledging the hurt, and devastation that these horrific storms cause, I truly wish I could be in Florida around the time to shell post hurricane - alas I do not live in Florida, haha!
    A quote that resonates: "I do like to film these videos alone, so I'll be moving away from the other shellers..." 🤣🤣
    Shell well, beach buddy! 💙

      "I shell alone. Yeahhhhhh, with no body else. You know when I shell alone, I prefer to be by myself." (You may be a bit too young, but this is to the tune of "I drink alone" by George Thorogood 🤣) And that is the benefit of stressing from these hurricanes - you get to shell them after!

    Awesome haul Sharmon, nine Rose Murex, wow! Looked like a great trip. I spent the morning collecting shark teeth with my daughters in South Guana Reserve. the both got about 30 each and I got 10. I also picked up a couple of shells, sea glass and some trash. So great day for all. Have a great week Sharmon.

    Dear Sharmon,
    Wow, wow, wow! You really found the honey hole for Rose Murexes. They are so gorgeous with their little spikes and bright colours. You've got to love them!😍
    I was glad to see that there were still a lot of live critters, not only deceased ones.
    That big mama Lightning Whelk was amazing. Hopefully, she goes -thanks to you- back into the sea and make lots of babies!
    Kice is always a bit of a strange island for me, with all his spikes and muddy shores. But every time, I'm in awe with all the gorgeous shells that are there to be found.
    I'm probably not the first one who asks, but what happened with your (wedding) ring? You're wearing this purple one for quite some weeks now. I miss the sparkles.
    It's 6.30 a.m. and I'm awake since 3 a.m. due to a lot of pain. Your videos always make me forget my troubles for a moment, and I'm so grateful for that!❤
    But now I'm going to try to get a little bit more sleep.
    I hope you have a wonderful day and week.
    Sending you lots of love and, of course, a big hug, xoxo ❤, Ilona

    • @SWFBeachLife
      @SWFBeachLife  27 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      I lost a diamond in my ring on Keewaydin and I've since had the ring fixed. Now that it's all shiny and sparkly, I don't want to wear it in the ocean! I had bought a "fake" one that is really quite uncomfortable and I forget to put the rubber ones on sometimes 😃
      I am sorry to hear you were awake from pain but I am so glad I can get you to think of something else, at least for 30 minutes or so. I hope you were able to get some rest. I myself had a wonderful sleepy Sunday and I'm ready to take on the week!

    There is nothing like Kice! I have never heard of anyone finding that many rose murexes in one trip! I feel like the cones used to be more “rare” and my last visit to Kice on the day before you, I came home with 18! That doesn’t even take into account how many live ones I encountered. Every single rose murex I found was still occupied so I didn’t collect any. 😢 These storms really change things for the animals and thus the patterns of what you find on the beach change too.

    • @SWFBeachLife
      @SWFBeachLife  26 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      There really isn't anything like Kice is there? Kice was rather lacking in the cone department, but that tropical storm Debby really kicked things off and the storms keep coming. No giant shell piles, but I'll search through that muck for the treasures any day!

    It just occurred to me that you would think there would be more crown conches on Kice since it’s so muddy/swampy. I found a couple there during my tour. Great day! ☀️

    • @SWFBeachLife
      @SWFBeachLife  27 วันที่ผ่านมา

      What a smart cookie you are! They are on Kice, but they like to hang out on the bay side of the island, so you would find them not on the gulf side where I am normally shelling, they would be on the bayside, the other side of the island. I hope that makes sense. They like to hang out in mud. The shells are SO satisfying to clean 🥰

    Question: In some places there are a bunch of black things sticking up. Are those roots? are they stiff or flexible? I'm curious about how difficult it is to get through those. OK, that was a couple of questions lol

    • @SWFBeachLife

    Can you recommend locations for good shelling for someone who needs a walker or wheelchair. Are there any good beaches for accessibility. I can drag my walker around but can’t get very far. I do have a family who can go anywhere they want but I’d love to be close to them. I’m just concerned about locations that aren’t damaged by past hurricanes.

    • @SWFBeachLife
      @SWFBeachLife  24 วันที่ผ่านมา

      2 locations come to mind.
      Delnor Wiggings in Naples has parking that pretty much lines the beach so parking, transportation and the beach are all very close and accessible.
      Lovers Key has beach wheelchairs that you can rent! You would need to park and get to the trolley, but once you are at the beach, there are beach wheelchairs available for use: th-cam.com/video/39TKDgO5xEQ/w-d-xo.html
