Post hurricane shelling makes hurricane season a good time to find shells, but I can certainly do without the destruction. I was not able to take advantage of good shelling after hurricane Ian, but this time I made plans to go out before the hurricane struck. I was really hoping for a little storm and sad to see so many lives turned upside down.
