    What is so great about your videos Kyle is how much beauty you see in so many things and how grateful you are. 😊💜💚💙 I love living vicariously through you. Your adventures remind me of my years Agate hunting at the ocean when my girls were little. We lived a block away for about 6 years. Such good times. I miss them so much.

    Hi, Kyle. Continued good thoughts, energy, and prayers for your Mom 🙏~ I was back up to Michigan for a mini reunion last month, we went to some southern Lake Michigan beaches and I found some great slag. but when I showed them to the 'regulars' there they said I couldn't call them Leland because they weren't found at the Leland beaches near Traverse city. I'm posting here to see if anyone has met with this labeling issue?
