Got a phone call late yesterday for the annual pre opening of the Blueberry patch I pick at.
Just a few folks that get first dibs on the Blueberries 🫐.
So a 90 mile drive each way.
6+ hrs of picking
Should probably produce 35-40 quarts of berries.

Love me some blueberries

Looks like rain in the distance. I hope it’s not just a tease again ☹️

Is that all shells? I don’t remember it being that many laying around

Yes, certain times of the year, usually in winter you can get tons of shells washing in. Most are Arcs and not very collectable.

Found this interesting root ball with a face carved in it while beachcombing.

That is the happiest piece of driftwood I've ever seen.

My one day off today I went desperation metal detecting and took on a trashy park I hate to go to. Focused on areas I've observed where people party and have little events. Pulled tab after tab cursing under my breath as I got frustrated lol. Got a tab signal thinking oh goody another tab. This tab looked different wait that's not a tab, a little silver baby bracelet popped up. Managed some other junk jewelery on my frustration journey but hey a hell of a lot better than work.

Now that’s interesting
I wonder who carved it and what culture

Those things are sold in arts & craft shows here

in Florida. The wood is a natural peace of driftwood found on the beaches and islands. An artist cleans/sands them up & carves the face. Usually they are then coated with varnish. I have no clue how that one ended up in the water.

It could of been washed out from on the Hurricanes last year. Lot of water intrusion along the gulf coastlines.

Where abouts did you recover the driftwood?
Pretty cool recovery, congratulations.
