The GIF maker in tumblr sucks so bad. But it did make this video I took look kinda cool in a cartoon way.
Btw. I literally was out there on the beach videoing this sunset for work.
A very special find today while I was working on the beach. I feel like most of you do not know what the significance of this shell is (I know one of you might). This is the rare “Pawleys Island Shell” aka Imperial Venus Clam.
Like many things in Pawleys, this shell has a local legend attached to it. It’s rare to find and many people come to the island in search of these. Local jewelry and art is made in its likeness. Legend says you can only find these shells on Pawleys Island, and if you do, you’ll be blessed.
Growing up, my mom and grandpa was (and still is) an avid shell collector. I haven’t posted about that on here before. Many days of my life have been spent combing the beach for shells with them. They educated me on the many species that line the South Carolina coast. Often opening the big scientific shell book. Matching what we found at the end of the day to names in the book. We have years worth of conchs, whelks, augers, letters olives - the SC state shell, and more than I could ever count.
One shell that never made the collection was the rare Imperial Venus. Today I was the lucky one who got to find one. It was a really exciting moment as I was not necessarily looking for shells today. I guess home wanted to give me a Christmas Present. I am now one of the ones who has a Pawleys Island Shell.
Blue Herons are always a treat to spot in the marsh. I love hanging out with these guys.
Beautiful scallop shells I picked up on my walk earlier.
Our holiday pride and joy. Backyard Collards.
