Thurs. 2/12/09

Hi! Happy Lincoln's Birthday to all of you. And Happy Birthday to Janet, Tom, and Sarah.

Beach Day!! Manasota Beach, near Venice, FL. It was cloudy and overcast, but we did not have any plans for the day. Sooooo I ask to go to the beach, a beach where we could find some sharks teeth. We ask at the Registration Bld. here for information on beaches. Good info.
I have been told that these black, triangle, boomerang shaped little stones? are very, very old sharks teeth. I even found one that is supposed to be a sting ray tooth!
what ever we had a good time for 1 and 1/2 hours looking for these little black things. Interesting, mostly older people walking slowly, bent over looking at the sand. Some had little wire nets, like the dustpan on a handle. This would scoop up the shells and sand crabs that the tide brought in. I would have to have one if we were to be near beaches more often.
Back home to polish silver, that's done for now and just take it easy. Talk to you later. JKC
