Oh my! I'm glad you're okay and I know that had to be scary! I got back from Shell Camp January 8th and you're on point about Kice Island and ALL the variety of shells! I had 3 days to roam up and down the shore and even took a hoe and dug through the huge shell piles. Thanks to watching you for over a year now, I was able to identify most of what I found. I Fed Ex a 5 gallon bucket of shells back to NC. I still have to clean them and I love the tiny ones I found so much! I think the only ones I didn't find were flats and limpets. Kice Island is the bomb and I can't wait to go back again. It was an incredible camp!

I found so many I had to buy an extra duffle bag to bring them all back to Ohio with me. Thanks to you, I was able to identify all of them!

I love how you give commentary in your videos. I have learned so much from you and your adventures. We were down on 10K (Dickmans Island), Ft Myers and Sanibel last week. Got into town hours after the tornadoes came thru. Shelling at Lighthouse Beach was stupendous Monday and Tuesday with literally millions of cockles, pen shells and scallops. I have finally come to realize that shelling is so different from NWF (Navarre) to your neck of the woods. We have tons of Flat Scallops, olives, scallops, Fighting Conch but not many Cockles, Murex, and pen shells. I appreciate the difference and can't wait to go another round!!

Nice you got help and came home safely!! That can be very scary. The power of the ocean is nothing to play with. I hope you have some kind of first aid kit with you. I was once on an island we call sandbar. It's a long strip of just sand. It far out from shore. There was an other family there. The oldest daughter ran out into the waves. In the water was an old rusty oil barrel. She didn't see it. It cut close to the main artery on the thigh. Blood was all over the place. They didn't have any first aid kit and the mom was hysterical, so I put a pressure bandage on. We called our 911 and the police came. They had the fastest boat that was close. They took her a shore and the ambulance was waiting at the harbor. Always good to prepared for the worst and hope for the best😊

Wow! What an adventure and I'm glad you survived to tell the tale! Your adventures had me digging through my shell box to see if I could identify my shells ~ I have a bunch of spiny jewel boxes (but mine aren't very spiny, just very bumpy but I love their texture), a bunch a small arks (no turkey wings), clams and scallops, a bunch of Florida fighting conch pieces (I love how they feel after being smoothed over by the sand and surf), shark eyes & moon snails and one baby's ear! My personal favorite is a scotch bonnet I found that has a chunk of the shell missing that perfectly showcases the internal spiral of the shell (and it's mostly white with a hint of color around the lip of the opening) Now I need murexes and olives!

The albino lightning whelk, the second albino lace murex and that flat scallop were so beautiful, and the glorious variety of just stunning shells was amazing! I’ve been kayaking for years and would recommend taking sometime to actually just train in your kayak in all types of weather (safety first of course) so that you will always have that in your in arsenal. Last year the hubby and I kayaked to Dickman’s and Kice, inspired by you, and we definitely encountered strong winds on the way back and were glad of our experience training in wind on our local lakes. So glad you didn’t loose anything and were able to land your kayak and get help. Wow, that was some video!
