How about a walk on the beach...
to see what we can see!
We enjoyed a little side trip to Jekyll Island
on our way to our home in Florida!
It’s not a beach for seashells...
there aren’t very many!
But there are sand dollars...lots of them!
Many of them are alive so we just take photos and leave them where they are!
There were several horseshoe crabs this time!
They were big and scary! lol
My hubby’s toes go into this photo and it shows
how BIG the horseshoe crabs were! (thanks honey!)
I’m joining Mary at the dear little red house
for Mosaic Monday!
It’s great to be back in Florida!
It’s sunny and warm and I LOVE IT!
And if my friends think that I’ve flipped and written TWO Mosaic Mondays tonight...they would be partly right! I wasn’t sure if I would be back online this soon so I scheduled the one about fruit! I just forgot to tell myself that I did! heeheehee! So I’m twice as much fun tonight AND tomorrow!
I think I’ll go lie down now.....
What’s the weather like at your house?

What a pretty beach, I would like to take a walk on this beach too. I love the sand dollars, I've never seen one myself. Beautiful photos and I love your mosaic.
What wonderful photographs! I've not seen a sand dollar in years and years! Thanks for sharing! Sunny and warm sounds nice. Our weather is hot here in Texas, 97 today. WE NEED RAIN too!

What beautiful photos!!!!! I would love to be at the beach right now:)
What a beautiful, and peaceful looking beach! I'm going to have to check out your Jekyll Island one of these days! I think that horseshoe crab may be bigger than my skeleton of one...I'll have to compare. Great pics, and I love sand dollars!
Big Hugs!
Hello name mate! That horse shoe crab scared me hahahaha
And I love seeing beach posts from you. The beaches you show are my ideal one, quiet, serene and less people. Everything shows tranquility and relaxation.
You must be so happy to be in your winter home! I love the thought of sun, sand and surf in the winter time - we have two out of three here all winter!
Oh my how lucky you are to have found the beautiful sand dollars...I have never been able to find a whole one! WOW! Cathy
Pretty sea creatures! I'd like to soak my feet in the waters!
Have a great week ahead!
Your pictures made me so happy! I didn't get to spend much time on the beach this summer but you really captured the essence...love the horseshoe crab.
The beach looks much like VA Beach where we were 2 weeks ago. Love seeing the dunes again and the little birds. Such a peaceful and lovely spot. So many sand dollars. Know you had a wonderful visit. genie
Oh what a beautiful beach! I have never seen a sand dollar "in person" -- very lovely! Thanks for sharing (twice!) at MM. And don't worry -- I forget things constantly!!! ;) xoxo
Jekyll Island is truly beautiful (it has been about 15 yrs since we visited and glad not many changes)
Your images are beautiful and how kind of you to leave the sand-dollars behind and let life continue.

If you could see the dry landscape around me right now, you would know just how much I appreciated the walk along the beach with you today ... even if it was just a virtual walk. Fabulous photos!
Oh, you're making me miss the beach. But we'll be there in 2 weeks ... so I'll just enjoy these photos of yours!
We also see horshoe crabs along the beaches up here. They look so prehistoric!
Walking on that beach would be such a treat. Thanks for the pics!
I could almost hear the ocean waves!
I wish I was on that beach right now. It looks lovely. That is, all but that big crab. He looks a bit, crabby. I have never seen that kind. He really was a big one.
p.s. I finally sent you the pattern for the Fall quilt. Hope you enjoy it.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful beach-mosaic!
Have a nice week,
Markus
Great dunes and beach. Looks like you had it to yourselves that day. I will be wanting some of your Florida sun in a while as it is getting cooler here now. V
I love these photos and I am so glad that you had a safe trip and made it to Florida! Those horseshoe crabs are HUGE!! Your pictures are beautiful, both these and the fruit. :)
Enjoy your day!
xoxo
Beautiful pictures! I love sand dollars... but don't love people who collect live shells...Thank you for not doing this and mentioning it in your post! It's an overcast morning here in Pasco!
Hi Diane, great pictures! Good to have you back with us in Florida.
I want some of the little white pumpkins myself. Are they called Jack-Be-Littles? Not sure.

Welcome back to FL. Your sand dollars are just nifty. Your beach pictures are always gorgeous.
So very lovely photos and mosaic. And your fruit-mosaic looks delicious too. We have just awful weather here. Rain, rain and rain......
What a lovely side trip! Love all the photos. Yikes! That Horsehoe crab is really something. I don't think I've ever seen one before your photos.
How cool Diane! I have never seen a sand dollar on the beach. What a great find! Looks like you had a such a wonderful time. I am drooling at your fruit mosaic as I type here, that is lovely too! I love pears!
Oh it all looks so lovely...wish I was beach combing with you..missed the beach this Summer. xox
Thank you for the lovely walk on the beach Diane!
We had a glorious sunny Tuesday after 2 days of rain and storms..and it has cooled down of 10°C, bbrrr!!! I think Autumn is reaching Italy too :-(
Have a good week!

Thanks for the walk on the beach... I love Florida and miss it very much... so thanks for the sweet memories...Hugs
Oh thank you for sharing these beach photos! I love sand dollars, and you really got some great shots!
I love the ocean! I've never been to Jekyll Island, but I've read a lot about it. I'd love to find a sand dollar! Lovely photos!
