feels like working to clean up the computer room is a never-ending project…

but…

on Saturday I found my original seashell collection…

I can’t believe it… I came across a box that hadn’t been opened yet and figured it was filled with more papers… and when I took off the lid, this is what I saw;-)…

yikes, not even going to think how long that corner of the room hasn’t been touched…

what a lovely time I had today, unwrapping each one and putting them in the table and credenza…

memories came flooding back as I remembered names of many of the shells as they emerged from the 1998 newspapers they were wrapped in…

going to take out my resource books and do a bit of a refresher, lol…

came across this picture from a trip to Mexico in 2017…

I have loved and collected seashells since I was given an abalone shell when I was young…

this store was amazing;-)…

I have lost the main part of my collection… this is a very old picture from when I was a teenager…

I think these shells may have ended up in the garbage years ago;-(…

now I fill the drawers with a collection of more recently purchased pieces…

it was fun to remember the store and my collection…
