| Picture of micromollusks in the shell museum on Sanibel Island. These microshells are only 1/32 - 1/4 inch when fully grown! The actual shell is encased in the circle at the bottom of the picture. An enlarged picture of each microshell is shown at the top! Amazing! |
 |
| People with an artistic bent make the most beautiful things from sea shells. This "flower" arrangement is made from hundreds of sea shells. |

| Our friend Elsie at a sewing "class" at our campground near Arcadia, FL. We met Elsie and her husband Fred in Salt Lake City in 2009 when we were all there to do genealogy research! Her other love is sewing! |
 |
| Panorama of the sewing "class" at the campground. All these sewers have fabulously expensive machines that can do everything but feed the dog. |
Fred and Elsie took us all over the area to see the sights.

 |
| Venice Area Audubon Rookery A wonderful little island in the middle of a small lake where the birds can do their thing relatively undisturbed. Lots of photographers around however. |

| The oranges are ripe. We saw lots of these huge trailers heading for the juicing plants on our way from Arcadia to Davenport. |

| Barney and two friends. Nice dog park at this campground which all the dogs loved. We appreciate it as well. Nice for the dogs to be off leash for a change. |
