Most of my life, I have ventured southeast to a pure and rugged strip of coastal sand to reconnect.
I think about this place all the time.

Hatteras Island, NC.

For "ump-teen" years now, I find the "best" shells ever... See the red-brick one? I remember finding one just like it on a beach walk with the cutest blue-eyed, blonde salty-haired ship builder when I was 17. Still got it in my jewelry box. |

| Dreamy sunsets on the Pamlico Sound, in Frisco, Hatteras Island, NC... Never get tired of them and wait to see them every year. Makes me cry. |
Can you find the little gray sand bugs tucked in the rear ? They dig backwards into the surf...used to dig them up to watch them hide, over and over.  |
Along the natural shorelines of Hatteras and the Outer Banks are richly colored, tiny coquina shells...tossed and tumbled bits of purple amethyst and white Quahog clam shells that were carved into beads, decorative items by the indigenous people, the Algonquian~Croatan Indians.  This hand sculpted and coiled piece has inky-black zircon facets surrounding eggplant seed pearls, indigo blue iolite, tanzanite and the palest lavender Cape amethyst briolette focal. More peacock purple pearls in the hand-linked chain with watery, polished oval and deep purple cushion-cut amethyst cushion beads. Gorgeous faceted garnet and amethyst toggle clasp. 14K gf and 22K gold vermeil. bobbi jordan's late summer color palette... lavender & orchid shades and hues of purple shells & sandy dunes this color of night sea grass green |
