Papa’s World – Before the storm – looking for shells!

The day was beautiful in the morning – but later that day a storm was coming!

So – we decided to go to Vareen Gardens – on the state line of N.C and S.C.

Sherry wanted some shells for a project she was doing!

We are so close to two beaches but the shell hunting is better than a few others! Here is our beach – OIB!

Our destination is Vaneer Gardens right along the coast of the ICW – recently on our day with family

on a pontoon boat – we passed right by here!

No shoes – no socks – just shorts – shirts and sandals for wading in the water!

This area is loaded with Oyster Shells and that is what she was looking for – tons of them!

Papa – looking at shells people have signed and some are hung from the tree here!

We found what she needed and then headed back home just as the storm rolled in!

The storm is approaching – thunderstorms here are terrific – lightning – thunder and sometimes downpours!

This day – we enjoyed the early morning beach and then a trip to Vareen Gardens – found shells and returned home and then the storm hit!

PAPA’S WORLD – BEFORE THE STORM – SEARCHING FOR SHELLS at VAREEN GARDENS, LITTLE RIVER-S.C.

Papa’s World – Walking OIB to see the sunrise!

The sun creeping above the horizon on Ocean Isle Beach – GOOD MORNING!

Our Monday morning walking group decided to walk the beach instead of the park – to see the sunrise!

In the middle we had our daughter Tammy and her son Bode along with us to walk – she also chose to run as did Bode!

Tammy along with Sherry and Bode walking and looking for shells – you can just see Bode as he is shell hunting!

Only eight years old – he got out of bed and came with us as we left the house at 6:15 am.

Standing before a beach castle someone made above the surf line – Bode – who also ran with his mother!

The sky turns orange over the water as the Sun rises!

Diane and Sherry walk toward the Groin as the sun peaks above the horizon.

The views are just beautiful!

A look back at the way we had come!

Notice the reflection on the White House!

Tammy and Bode looking for shells as the sun nears rising!

PAPA’S WORLD – WALKING OIB TO SEE THE SUNRISE!

Papa’s World – Make a wish – FAMILY JONES!

When we were here with our grand kids – CASSIDY -TAYLOR – BODE – they strung together these shells with all our names on them including MORMOR & PAPA! Each time we return – we can feel them being here!

They began gathering their shells –

We had shown them the shells that the grand kids had hung from the tree!

The shell Taylor hung with her initials – TK – and the month and year!
In the back ground – our grand daughters – Cassidy – shell with her cousins Olivia in the foreground.

They loved doing this – and when other family members come down

we shall do the same!

On the tree – Sherry wrote the names – Taylor – Cassidy – Bode and now Maya and Olivia.
Maya signing her shell.
Olivia signing her shell!

We spent some time here – reading other shells and found one with a date of 1990!

Thank you for reading Papa’s World!

Maya Olivia Kristie and CASSIDY’S make a wish seashell – our grand daughter!

We arrived – The Make A Wish Tree area –

along the ICW in Little River S.C.

at the Vereen Memorial Garden!

The girls were excited – because we told them – their cousins had been there

a couple weeks prior!

We showed them the sea shells they had made and signed!

So they went about finding shells!

So may shells to look at!

They took their time – looking with the help of their parents and Sherry!

Now it was time!

Spread them out on the bench – string them – and write your wish!

Found the spot on the tree – where their cousins left their names and added theirs!
