Guess where I am, yes the beach!
I don’t know what got into J, but he said he would stay home and take care of things and I could go to the beach. So off I went. But with no one else here, I have pretty much just been out strolling and enjoying looking for shark teeth.
And look what I found this morning, the biggest tooth I have ever found. So the back story, you never know what you will be doing right before you look down and there it is. I still pretend that I can run fast. So, sometimes, when the beach is wide open and there is no one else around, I will do some 50 or 100 yard sprints. I had taken off on one of these sprints, between the ocean and a trough of water on a sort of sand bar. I thought the sand was hard, and it was to start with. I was at my top speed (which in my mind is really fast) and thinking I can do this for the full 100 yards, when I hit soft sand. My foot sunk and I fell to my knees. My first check, yes my back is ok. Second check, no one close to have witnessed that embarrassment. I washed the sand off and headed to the beach side of the water trough, looked down and saw “the tooth”.
I am up to 64 teeth so far.
And a bunch of see glass and a couple of faces.

What an exciting find! Looks like you have some other nice teeth too.
I like the sea glass and shells and little faces.
The running and falling - yikes. So glad you are ok.
A day at the beach sounds wonderful, especially when you have it all to yourself.
