I hated for today’s session to be over. I was enjoying the shells so very much today and the water was clear and the cones were beautiful. I just enjoyed it so much. It only seemed like five minutes at the most.
I love when you go to Keewaydin--I rewatch those older trips, too! Yes, couldn't believe what good shape those cones were in--most even had perfect apertures, and the colors! Stunning colors on the apple murex shells, too! Great horse conchs, colorful moonsnails, that very cool worm snail and you even picked up a mossy ark--it was like a dream you would have of a perfect shelling day! Thanks for filming so we all could go with you!
I cried noooo! when you left that gorgeous broken moon snail with the brown and white swirls. I would have loved to cut that into a pendant and wrapped it in some gorgeous hammered wire. I always find beauty in the broken shells, though. All the Alphabets were super cool. The Florida Cones are actually my favorite, though. They have such beautiful swirly colors. I keep a Florida Cone in the console of my car with a bunch of rocks that I have collected from special times and places. I call them my memories. The Florida Cone I found on my 50th birthday on Kice, and besides the fact that it makes me remember how happy I was that day, it really is just beautiful. You got so many gorgeous shells this video. 🥰
Me too. I think I would have had to keep the broken moon with the chocolate and white swirls. It was so unusual. I wouldn't normally keep something that broken but I was amazed. It truly reminded me of a chocolate/vanilla swirl ice cream cone.
Hi Sharmon, What a beautiful day to go shelling! You did great in the Alphabet Cone and Fighting Conch department! What a gorgeous shells!😍 And being Dutch: of course I love the Banded tulips and Orange Shells. 🧡 But all the shells are stunning and I would be over the moon if I found just one of them. I'm very curious about what you're going to do with all those FFC's. I know for sure that project will be marvellous. Thank you for taking me and all the other viewers with you on your beach trips. I love every minute of it! Hope you're doing well. Wishing you a lovely week with lots of joy, happiness, good health and of course gorgeous shells! Big hug and lots of love, xoxo ❤️, Ilona
Ilona, it was so fun to be out there. Shoot, it's always fun, but when you can pick up awesome shell after awesome shell it's pretty hard to wipe the smile from my face. My projects tend to take me about three times as long as I would like them to, but I am working on a little something that I hope to unveil by the end of next month. I have a little more experimenting to do first 😃 I hope you are feeling well and your health isn't giving you any trouble. Sending sunshine and warmth 🧡🧡🧡
That trip was unbelievable! I would have been so excited with all those alphabet cones. Thanks for bringing us your shelling adventures. Shells were so beautiful!
Beach time is the best time. I turn up the volume, close my eyes and imagine I’m there. I am really loving those buttercup lucines, jingles and the scallops.
Wow!!! Beautiful treasures today!!! The waves were breaking a little stronger today with the tide coming in; fabulous sounds to go with the fabulous sites. Thank you for a lovely day!
WOW! What a day! That large apple murex was spectacular. And I totally get why you pick up lots of conchs ... the variety in colors and patterns is really something to behold!
I vacationed on Great Exuma Island, Bahamas for 2 weeks and shelled almost every day! I found so many keyhole limpets, teeny tiny to very large.I have quite the collection of them and variety of colors too☺
Got us excited - going to Keewaydin in a few days!!! My first trip to Florida to do shelling - and am with my sister. We are making great memories. Have been to Dickman's and a couple of beaches up by Venice - great for tinies! Still on schedule are Sanibel, Keewaydin and Kice. Then it's back to the great frozen North in about 10 days. You can take away the heat - but you can't take away my memories or my shells!!!! {{shelling hugs}}
@@SWFBeachLife Aww...well..we gotta thank The Lord for creating these beautiful creatures of beauty, He cares even for the smallest, like the sparrow. He knew you would enjoy these beauties, it's His blessings to you, Enjoy 😊
I really enjoy your videos. I was born and reared in North Florida, now living in New England but with family in JAX and SW FL. I really miss the beach and shelling but get to enjoy by watching your videos. Thanks for bringing all of us along!
Lovely day at the beach and wonderful shells. I so enjoy watching how respectful you are of the living creatures. Always a joy watching your day at the beach. 😊
Always too short! Great haul, though. That huge moon snail is beautiful. Thanks again for your bright and shiny outlook and for sharing these adventures! Can't wait for next Sunday!
I enjoyed all the shells you picked up today. So beautiful. I enjoy the beach time. Hearing the water and waves. Thank you for sharing your videos. It really does help relax me and just enjoy it all. Have a wonderful day.
Good evening, Beach Angel! What a wonderful day at Keewaydin! Such beautiful shells today! Not as many as you found last time, but lovely ones, just the same! It can't always be a many-shells day, but that's what makes those days so special! I like the cones and whelks and the egg cases are amazing! The horse conchs are gorgeous! Oh, you do the same thing, "please, oh, please, be empty!" I never know if I'm talking to the sea or the shell or myself! Nice lace murex, too! You know, I really think the scallops are my favorites, humble as they are. I'm getting my gear in order, and have two separate shell bags, like you. I used to use bread bags for the littles and box-store bags, several inside each other, for the heavy shells. I used my pockets for fragile shells. Since "knowing" you, I'm actually getting mesh carry bags for mixed shells, a mesh backpack for the heavies and a small handled bag for fragiles. Water shoes, shorts and a t-shirt under windproof pants and a windbreaker complete my fall shelling wardrobe. Just point me to the sea, 'cause I'm ready! I'm growing a bit more excited with every lap of the waves on the shore. Soon I'll be quite insufferable, I'm sure. I'll be so shell-minded, I won't be much good for anything else. I do hope to get down your way some time. My husband has brothers in Apopka, and the next time we go there, we are going to make a slightly out of the way side trip to your area. (My idea, not his). Spring is hastening its arrival here, though I strongly suspect that there will be a real cold snap at Easter. I think it's a visceral reaction, when you see a shell rolling in the surf, to bend down and grab it, don't you? Like Pavlov's pooches, we have trained ourselves. Good on you for picking up to much trash! Ha! You're going for the land record for Fighting Conch Collections, right? Do they have an Olympic event for shell collecting? Oh, the suspense of waiting for your surprise! I know it will be worth it! Thank you for the boat ride, the sunrise and for the shelling trip! It's always such a treat to go along with you! Happy days and good shelling to you, dear Beach Angel. Love from the Lost Mermaid
Yes, I do believe I have been trained to immediately bend down and grab shells if they are rolling around in the surf 😂 I guess it's better than drooling right? And it sounds like you are just about ready! I had a SUPER fun day not too long ago (I'll be sure to share) and picked up so many shells that within the first hour I had to unload them from my shell bag and get them into my backpack. Good call on the backpack! It's a lot easier to carry the weight on your back than over your shoulder. And I just may end up with that record for the fighting conchs. I just can not help myself! Hugs! 🥰
I just went to Keewaydin on Saturday with Ali & Captain Carlos and found soo many cones, a beautiful red true tulip, two rose murex and a decent size horse conch! Fabulous shelling!!!!!
What an amazing day shelling! Cones galore! I was on Dickman and Kice islands last week with SWF Natical shelling and it was super. Found so many shells, even a baby’s ear!
What an amazing day!!! I can't believe how many alphabet cones you found. Thru out the video I was yelling shut up!!! 🤣😂. Holy cow🤯. Always love coming along with you. Thank you for the beautiful video as always. 🥰
Absolutely love watching your trips to the beach, one day I will make it to SWF and do a shell tour. We have had so much sand wash up on our beautiful North Sapphire Beach in New South Wales, Australia that shells are few and far between. We usually have tritons, cowries , abalone , turbans , trocus, baler shells , bonnets, limpets, and coral as we are at the southern end of the barrier reef chain, with the Solitary Islands etc but alas we will have to be patient until they return. Have a lovely weekend.🐠🪸🐬🦀🌴🐚🦑🐢
I just went on my first 3 hr shelling tour to 10k Islands- Kice Island and Dickman's Island in July 2024. I found 3 alphabet cones, one in great shape, one pretty beat up and the other one was a piece of one. I want to find some baby cones and alphabet cones on my next adventure. I will be going on another shelling trip in less than 2 weeks to Fernandina Beach which is relatively close to my home in SE Georgia. I will be on the hunt this time for shark teeth near the St Mary's River to add to my collection, pretty black/gray shells of all types and my hubby on the hunt for some spanish rials with his metal detector. I am totally addicted to shelling and have learned so much by watching your channel. I definitely want to check out Keewaydin Island next year on my way to Key West.
That pear whelk was begging you to take it home Sharmon! Come on now! 😂 Seriously, I've thoroughly enjoyed your beach hunt tonight. You have me wanting to go back down to SWFL and I just got back from Pass A Grille last week from an awesome shelling trip. ☺️
LOL! It's happened before and I've picked up the same exact shell! Holy smokes was this shelling day fun. I've seen what's been going on up at Pass A Grille - at least you probably have yourself a bunch of urchins!
Thanks for taking us along again! I was really hoping to get to Florida this year, but unfortunately not. My husband will travel by himself to see the grandsons. I'm having issues with my lower back, again, and I will be getting injections again. I just can't sit, stand, or walk for very long. These so-called "golden years" are literally a pain in the butt! I'll just keep living vicariously through you. Hugs!
I so love watching your shelling adventures. I'm taking my daughter and 2 1/2 year old grandson to Keewaydin Island on March 13th. My grandson loves watching you a Plum Island Sea Cabin. He is getting good at naming the shells.
i was on keewaydin twice in mid-january a week apart. first time shells were meh! and i picked up a lot of garbage, but second time was cone-a-palooza...such a special day. still treasure that day over the 5 i spent in 10k islands! i so look forward to sunday afternoons with you. thank you so much for taking us along. ❤
There's no guarantee with the shells, but when they decide to show up, isn't it so much fun? I'm glad you got to have that amazing feeling of finding all those treasures too!
I was telling my daughter about my find of sa d dollars and she lives on great barrier island in nz qnw she said they call them snapper biscuits because they feed on these. Linda at whakatane Nz.
Btw.. I’m wanting to find a long lightening welk egg casing for my show and tell for kids stories at my church here in Oregon… we love the Fla keys.. I lived in ft Meyers as a kid
I am so happy to watch your new video after work tonight and wow all these alphabet cones are amazing ! This island was truly spectacular with all the beautiful shells ! Thank you for another fantastic shelling adventure ❤️🐚🏝️🦀
How cool to have found your channel. Love that you know all the shells names. I started collecting as a young girl. My grandparents had a beach house out in Springs NY. The bay beach was filled with shells. I had a mirror with a shell frame & a lamp made from a ginger jar filled with shells.
at 24:35 that is also a juvenile Anadara transversa... likely. And at 24:50 that is a very nice alphabet cone or Conus spurius... with an intact lip as well it seems. That is really nice. Little mineral oil, data slip along with it and you're done. at 28:23 that is a really special pattern, also because that Strombus already had a white vertical line on the previous whorl... and exactly ne whorl later again a white vertical line. I don't see a repair on that point, only a pause in growth, and as a result a commarginal growth line. And indeed, those are all called 'fresh dead'. Some fresher than others.
I've been following you for a little while, didn't know until now you were a Jersey Girl ! Enjoy the warmth and sunshine, still cold and yucky here in the Garden State. Love your clips, esp. during our NJ winter. 👍🏻😃🏖️🐚
i don't know if I'm the only one but, I scream out the name before she does. Thank you for teaching us! I'm from Florida. Nice to learn the real names!
What a great weekend shelling trip! Love all those special cones! but we have to wait a whole week for the next surprise?? I won't have any fingernails left!! LOL 😁
Maddie, what a great day you had. It’s getting hard to pick a favorite every video. There’s so many that I love.. I agree with you for today.. That Moon snail is STUNNING ❤❤❤See you next time my friend!! ❤
What a “shellapalooza” day with finding all those alphabet cones, oh my!! What a day you had, and you deserve that, especially after all your hard work with the auction. So happy for you 🫶🏻👏🏻👌🏻 I was curious, did the other shellers on your trip, find so many fantastic shells 🐚 as you did? Looking forward to next weeks video with the special surprise!
Everytime you say "Lets Go to the Beach" I say "I am ready" Hello from Snowy cold Michigan. Thanks for taking us along!😂
Me too lol
Me three!🤗
Same here from landlocked Ohio! Hello Sharmon!
I’m from Michigan! Born & raised in Dearborn… now in North Carolina!
@ dreams can come true YES, me too! From West Michigan, Grand Haven. We can go rock hunting, right! Though the warm weather is good for the soul.
I hated for today’s session to be over. I was enjoying the shells so very much today and the water was clear and the cones were beautiful. I just enjoyed it so much. It only seemed like five minutes at the most.
I love I when you get so excited about what you find! The alphabet cones were awesome! Thank you for another peaceful trip to the beach. ❤️🐚
Thank you for including us on your trips to the beach! I have learned so much by watching you!
I just love shelling with you! I think that you definitely hit the shell jackpot on this trip! Thank you so much for taking us along beach friend🐬🐚

It's pure magic watching you discover all of those precious shells!
I never get tired of watching you pick up all of those beautiful shells!!!!!!

What a gorgeous shells!😍 And being Dutch: of course I love the Banded tulips and Orange Shells. 🧡
But all the shells are stunning and I would be over the moon if I found just one of them.

I know for sure that project will be marvellous.

Whenever we’re on Keywaydin we always find buckets of cones!! I love it there 🌴🌴
Happy Sunday!!!
Hi Sharmon thank you for sharing I really needed this walk on the Beach so many beautiful shells.
Hello from thawing out Billings,Montana
Hello back! 🏝️
WOW! What a day! That large apple murex was spectacular. And I totally get why you pick up lots of conchs ... the variety in colors and patterns is really something to behold!

This like being in a candy store for you..shells everywhere! Great finds once again. Ty for sharing!🤠
Oh my goodness - I literally said that about a recent shell trip. It's incredible how happy these little seashells make me!

Shell yeah!!! So many cones that I started craving ice cream! Thanks for another great video. :)
The shells did not disappoint on this trip!
Wow what a fantastic day at the beach! You really scored on the alphabets and horse shells ! Lots of boats out ! Good day congrats
Always too short! Great haul, though. That huge moon snail is beautiful. Thanks again for your bright and shiny outlook and for sharing these adventures! Can't wait for next Sunday!

Thank you so much Lori!! I really appreciate it! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Holy Alphabet Cone!!! I love horse conchs!! I love them all!!! What a fun day!!! XOXO thank you for making my Sunday happy! See you next week!
Gorgeous alphabet cones! Amazing how many you found. Some really awesome shell finds there. What a great day that was. Looking forward to next video.

Two rose murex!! JACKPOT!!
That's one memorable shelling day! I'm yet to find my first alphabet cone! Thanks for taking us along! So much fun just to watch!
I just can't wait to get back there! I'm sitting in snowy Minnesota living vicariously through you! Love your videos!!! Thank you!
I can't believe all those shells!! So many cones!! great day at the beach!
My in laws live on the other side of Florida than where you are! I would love to find the shells that you find when we visit next!
What an amazing day shelling! Cones galore!
I was on Dickman and Kice islands last week with SWF Natical shelling and it was super. Found so many shells, even a baby’s ear!
A baby's ear? That's awesome! I'm so glad the shells cooperated!
What an amazing day!!! I can't believe how many alphabet cones you found. Thru out the video I was yelling shut up!!! 🤣😂. Holy cow🤯. Always love coming along with you. Thank you for the beautiful video as always. 🥰
Thanks Sharmon for sharing your shelling with us.
Absolutely love watching your trips to the beach, one day I will make it to SWF and do a shell tour. We have had so much sand wash up on our beautiful North Sapphire Beach in New South Wales, Australia that shells are few and far between. We usually have tritons, cowries , abalone , turbans , trocus, baler shells , bonnets, limpets, and coral as we are at the southern end of the barrier reef chain, with the Solitary Islands etc but alas we will have to be patient until they return. Have a lovely weekend.🐠🪸🐬🦀🌴🐚🦑🐢
I was drooling reading, tritons, cowries, abalone...its the rarity that makes them so special!
WOW! Absolutely fantastic finds! I don't think I've ever seen an orange jingle!
Thank you for making my Sunday so much better!! Stay safe and happy shelling!
I just went on my first 3 hr shelling tour to 10k Islands- Kice Island and Dickman's Island in July 2024. I found 3 alphabet cones, one in great shape, one pretty beat up and the other one was a piece of one. I want to find some baby cones and alphabet cones on my next adventure. I will be going on another shelling trip in less than 2 weeks to Fernandina Beach which is relatively close to my home in SE Georgia. I will be on the hunt this time for shark teeth near the St Mary's River to add to my collection, pretty black/gray shells of all types and my hubby on the hunt for some spanish rials with his metal detector.

Amazing day !! Thank you !!
Gorgeous haul! So happy for you!
I always look so forward to Sunday’s love shelling with you it looks so sunny and warm gray and cold here in Illinois
Very nice! I see Lori had a name change! Congrats Lori! I keep bumping into her! Thank you Sharmon! What a nice haul!!!

Cones have to be my favorite. We don’t have them in SC. ☹️ we do have knob whelks. I so have to come visit!
What a fantastic day!!
Wow! Awesome Cones!
Holy cow! What a haul! Congratulations 😁👍
Thank you for the beach trip!
I was telling my daughter about my find of sa d dollars and she lives on great barrier island in nz qnw she said they call them snapper biscuits because they feed on these. Linda at whakatane Nz.
Snapper biscuits - go figure!
That was pretty exciting! Nice shells!
What a great trip with so many beautiful shells. Such colorful scallops and I love those horse conchs!
Late to the beach party. I wait all week for your video but tonight we had freaky February tornadoes. All clear here and I enjoyed the fabulous video.
Oh crud - sorry about the storms. Stay safe!!
Seriously…I’m going to try to get there from Boring Oregon… has been snowing off and on but melting in the afternoon.
I hear you, Zelda. I live in Battle Ground, WA and I'm dying to go to SW Florida to go shelling. It snowed here recently too.
Such a great trip. We went to Keewaydin last month. So much fun!
Btw.. I’m wanting to find a long lightening welk egg casing for my show and tell for kids stories at my church here in Oregon… we love the Fla keys.. I lived in ft Meyers as a kid
This Sunday's video I show you a really really good shot of one of the discs and you can see all the little babies inside. Maybe that will help!
I am so happy to watch your new video after work tonight and wow all these alphabet cones are amazing ! This island was truly spectacular with all the beautiful shells ! Thank you for another fantastic shelling adventure ❤️🐚🏝️🦀
Thank you for tagging along with me!
So fun! I needed to hear the surf today.
Your videos are the best! Thank you for another great adventure! ❤
Thanks for watching!
How cool to have found your channel. Love that you know all the shells names. I started collecting as a young girl. My grandparents had a beach house out in Springs NY. The bay beach was filled with shells. I had a mirror with a shell frame & a lamp made from a ginger jar filled with shells.
Since I've started collecting I have since found out there are beaches all over the NE to find shells. I wish I had known!
We miss Naples so much. I would just sit on a shell pile and find so many awesome shells
All those cones! What a wonderful day you had! Thanks for my weekly beach time! ❤
Wow! Nice haul!
Seriously...fantastic finds and all on one beach ! You're killing me ! The shells were beautiful today . Luv'n this . 💖
I knoooooow! So fun!
at 24:35 that is also a juvenile Anadara transversa... likely. And at 24:50 that is a very nice alphabet cone or Conus spurius... with an intact lip as well it seems. That is really nice. Little mineral oil, data slip along with it and you're done. at 28:23 that is a really special pattern, also because that Strombus already had a white vertical line on the previous whorl... and exactly ne whorl later again a white vertical line. I don't see a repair on that point, only a pause in growth, and as a result a commarginal growth line. And indeed, those are all called 'fresh dead'. Some fresher than others.
Thanks so much for leaving such great info!
I've been following you for a little while, didn't know until now you were a Jersey Girl ! Enjoy the warmth and sunshine, still cold and yucky here in the Garden State. Love your clips, esp. during our NJ winter. 👍🏻😃🏖️🐚
Stay warm beach friend! I'm a little jealous of the snow days you may get, but at least I won't have to shovel!
What an awesome shelling trip Sharmon, I know you had a blast. When you give us beach time, do you not look down? Thanks, have a great week.
I really enjoy the shelves that you’re showing a love the colors. I love everything.
I looked forward to your video all day, and what a reward!! 😊 such spectacular finds today!!! Now I can go to sleep, dreaming of shells 🐚 ❤
i don't know if I'm the only one but, I scream out the name before she does. Thank you for teaching us! I'm from Florida. Nice to learn the real names!

I love your Let’s go to the Beach.
I have to get down there to find some shells like you found. My husband and I will be in Mexico Beach for a month in June. I can't wait!
Beautiful haul!!
Maddie, what a great day you had. It’s getting hard to pick a favorite every video. There’s so many that I love.. I agree with you for today.. That Moon snail is STUNNING ❤❤❤See you next time my friend!! ❤
What a “shellapalooza” day with finding all those alphabet cones, oh my!! What a day you had, and you deserve that, especially after all your hard work with the auction. So happy for you 🫶🏻👏🏻👌🏻 I was curious, did the other shellers on your trip, find so many fantastic shells 🐚 as you did? Looking forward to next weeks video with the special surprise!
The other shellers found fantastic shells too. Someone also found a "pony" horse conch. It was beautiful. It was such a fun day!
Great day at the beach!
As always a pleasure
Wow! You really had a super blessed day 🐚♥️🐚♥️
