It’s Ike Again!
Monday, September 22nd, 2008
Welcome Ike back to South Padre Island. This time it’s the debris that’s drifted down from Galveston. It may be littered with sunglasses and soda cans, but there were also lots of nice drift seeds and shells. Until Saturday, I’d only ever found one star palm seed and one mermaids purse, and really Diane found those. Well, we found tons of both! We brought back about a bucket full of drift seeds, tumbled pumice, shells and even a couple small coconuts! I spent most of the afternoon washing and sorting it all. Now, if it would just stop raining, we’ll get it all dried out, and wait till you see what we’re going to do with it!
