We meant to check it out this year but didn't manage to fit it in. I love the photo of you wading in the ocean. Your enthusiasm for the beach is evident as always. <br /><br />The shell mound is really interesting. I like the theory of a huge oyster fest. We went to an oyster festival in Arcata, California that may have generated a similar amount of oysters. Interestingly, they recycle all the shells and put them back in the ocean for habitat for future generations of oysters. I think some restaurants on the east coast are starting to do this as well. <br /><br />Gorgeous sunset. You win the contest for most photos of beautiful sunrises and sunsets.

They must have had a big crew to have finished it in only two months. I suppose the mosquitoes may have helped to speed up the process. That must have been a big deal at the time.
