Day 27 — Trash

Today we went to uninhabited St. Jo Island, a small island with a few cattle and a jetty where fisherman go to fish on the deep water channel side and where shell hunters go on the Gulf side. The Jetty boat drops off and picks up passengers there every couple of hours. We were excited to go shell hunting today, a gorgeous, sunny, warm day. Alas, the previous weekend’s storm brought the flotsam and jetsam from who knows where. We weren’t expecting to find more plastic water bottles than seashells, but we did!

A bonus photo; this pathetic Spalding soccer ball washed up on the beach. If someone misses the Jetty Boat, at least they’ll have their own version of “Wilson” to talk to.

  1. Oh wow, that trash is disgusting! I hope you were able to find some shells despite all that garbage (and Wilson…). Like your egret and flower photos!
