Well at least I thought it was,as I scooped it I thought no way,,yep sure enough too good to be true,kids burying Treasure:tongue3:
Got out to do some beach hunting @ New Port,my hubby had to do some bid walks down in Irvine..So I packed lunch-one for him & one for me,b/c he would be gone for @ least 6 hours..He dropped me off & I went to the lifeguard shack to storage my beach bag under the shade,,& off hunting I went!! Did manage to find a tiny birthstone earring,looks like a ring but I think it looks like a washer,will have to clean it up to find out,,HH

I do too,doesn't grow as fast enough as in Hawaii,but when a flower booms I get so excited,here in Riverside grows a little slower than if you were living in Torrance,near beach area,climate & soil..But I was thinking I could turn it into a necklace:icon_thumleft: HH
