  1. It’s really a cool and helpful piece of information. I am glad that you simply shared this helpful info with us. Please stay us informed like this. Thank you for sharing.

  2. Today, I went to the beachfront with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had to tell someone!
