Amazing Beach Day

I am sure I will be going a bit overboard with the beach walks... but.. they are my thing right now.. big time.. even though I hurt by the end of a 3 hour adventure on the beach... I can not stay away. I started just walking on the beach... then started collecting sea glass and shells... and I have always liked to pick up cool rocks from anywhere.. and now a friend has me looking for agates. I also love the animals I see.. eagles and sea gulls and crabs and snails and fish and bugs. Sometimes I see other people.. sometimes I do not... every single trip down the beach I find treasures and have adventures. I love it!

Last night we were watching one of the Life Series and it was about Creatures of the Deep.. we have watched most of these and they are AMAZING.. the video and the photography is like no other. This one goes to an ocean floor and talks about starfish...(and many other things) I mentioned that I do not think we have starfish on our beach since I have never seen one.. (like I know everything) Hubby said we have some on our beach too... well one day I will remember to never doubt him. Today I was walking on the beach and not only did I see a starfish.. I saw three.. and they were amazing. I also saw a big snail thing.. sort of grossed me out.. but it was so cool.
I also think I found a lot of agates... not 100% sure yet.. but whatever they are.. they are great.. the light shines through them and they glow and my mind is going over a million things we could do with them. I was lucky enough today to find some new colors of sea glass to add to my collection too.. a light green one and a charcoal one... also added three more of the icy blue color I love. I do LOVE beach walks.
