To: Mark James and Peta Susan Bethke:
        If you love to hear and read about shelling adventures with kids and
their parents, then I should have plenty to tell after our trip to Sanibel in
June - my poor family and their crazy mother who plans all family trips
around shelling or collecting soil of some kind...........and of course must
somehow teach the entire elementary school about shells as well (you guys
would be amazed to see children respond to handling shells - there are so
many who have never even been to a beach! much less touched a real shell).
We are planning an expedition while on Sanibel - my kids are 5 1/2 yrs. and 6
1/2 yrs. - so I'm sure there will be plenty to share!!
