Gloves. Lot’s and lots of gloves. 27 to be exact, and I am hardly ever exact. All of them found on my beloved Magnolia Beach in the course of a week or so. Which begs the question, why do so many gloves end up in the ocean? I honestly have no idea, except that most of them are probably  from lobstermen, and those guys are wicked hammad* half the time…

Goggle.

Decapitated Teddy Bear. I am not sure what the story is here, but I think we can assume that it is not a good one.

Toy Soldiers. Beach Patrol.

Fisherman’s Foul Weather Jacket. Man overboard.

Antler. We had another damn storm this weekend, with about 14 inches of snow. The storm surge was huge and hammered the beach, covering some areas and uncovering others. Apparently parts of what are now beach weren’t always; because some tree trunks and marsh land were under the sand. I found this awesome antler wedged in some rocks. I don’t think it is a fossil, but it’s pretty old, for sure.

Rubber Glove. About an 8 on the Creepy Scale.

Ladies Dress Shoe.

Flag. Apparently these colors do run.

Headless Doll. And a Happy New Year to you!

Radio Mic. Broken Breaker.

Tube Sock. I used to wear these around 40 years ago. It’s unlikely, but maybe this is one of them.

Metal Fishing Float. I am guessing this has been at the bottom of the ocean for a very long time, caught in some sunken nets. Recently we had some rough seas that may have broken it loose. It was made in La Caruna, Spain; at least 30 years ago. There is a cool picture of a lighthouse on it. I like it very much.

Flare Gun. Pretty cool.

You know that toy your kid lost at the beach? The one he made you look for for 30 minutes while he screamed his head off?  Yeah, I found it……
