Sometimes a quick storm brings the best shells!

Hard to believe that a rolling thunder storm Lasting no more than a half an hour can bring such beauty to the natural shore on Pass A Grille!

Locals know the best time to visit the beach is when the skies are still a little gray, before the sun comes out all the way, and before the daily beachgoers return to soak up the rays .

this is the best time you have the beach to yourself

Plus, should you decide to take a walk along the shore, you can find goodies galore! This was the case today, when I ventured out to visit the beach, and to my surprise, amidst the shells in the strewn seaweed there was a beautiful Sandollar.
