"One Of These Things Is Not Like The Other"



On our many beach walks....

We are always on the search for unusual things....

Shells.....are usually what we find....

But....this one day.....we hit the jackpot!

My boyfriend actually found an upper pair of someone's false teeth!

Have you ever?

Hahaha!

We keep looking for the owner....no luck yet!

Weather has been gorgeous all week!

Having lots of beach time....

Doesn't seem possible that we will be heading home next week....

Hope the weather clears in Tennessee and Kentucky....they are on our route!

Oh....an update....

Spoke with the mystery lady in the chair!

Her name is Deb....she is from Nova Scotia Canada!

She is here for 3 months.....staying next door....where we stayed once!

She has some physical problems, so sits to enjoy the ocean, and the passersby.....

The notebook? Just a journal she writes things in....nothing to do specifically with birds!

So.....there you go.....no big mystery after all.....hahaha!





This is how my boyfriend found the teeth....all sandy and gritty....

Shall we take them home, and add them to the shells around the beach deck....

At the cottage?
                                    **************************************

Hope you are all having a great day....

What are you up to?

Any freezing rain where you are?

My daughter Lissa lost power for a while last night....

Must check with her this am....

Enjoy your day!

Clocks Spring forward this weekend....

Won't be long now!

                  Cheers!   :o)

ps....do you remember that song from Sesame Street?

  3. Oh boy...teeth of all things! I bet someone is really missing them. And they can be quite expensive. Sounds like you're having a great time. And I hope the weather is nicer when you return. Crazy winter... Oh well, at least the days keep getting longer!

  6. How very strange to find a pair of teeth on the beach. Now if only they could talk...
    Maybe they came from a salty old sailor, or perhaps a seagull swooped down and stole them while a lady sunbathed... Or maybe they fell off a garbage barge. ha ha!
    I love the shell collection, teeth and all! I once found a little rabbit shaped cookie cutter on the beach at Windmill Point. I took pictures but I had my MIL's camera and never had the chance to get a copy. She probably never noticed it amongst the little shells and pebbles.

    1. Would love to know where they came from!
      Oh well....we sure got a laugh out of finding them!
      Wonder if she still has the picture? We find all kinds of goodies at the cottage beach at home....
      Hope you are well.....♥️

  7. lol . . . that's only a half find . . . where are the bottom teeth set ? . . . rofl.
    Nice that you spoke to the lady . . at first I thought you were going to say they were her's . . lol
    How can anyone lose their false teeth without realising it, I wonder?
    May be they were chattering with the cold in the biting wind you had and fell out . . .

    Glad you are having a good time . . . :)

    1. Hi Eddie.....
      Somebody is walking around with only bottom choppers! Hahaha!
      The lady was nice....although very private and shy....
      Only waved at her since!
      Yes....having a good time....thanks!

    2. I think those teeth need a good bleaching ~ awful colour aren't they? . . .
      A friend of mine swapped his Mums and Dads teeth whilst they were out of the bathroom.
      Mum said, "Hey I think there is something wrong with the water, my teeth don't fit ~ Dad said I think you are right mine don't either . . . haha!

  8. Okay, one photo of the teeth might have been funny, but did you have to share 6 photos of them, LSK? Quite gross! Glad you solved the mystery about the lady. We had a bunch of "brown outs" last night, but thankfully they didn't last long. Hope your daughter's is restored. Trying not to give in to the sniffles, need some sunshine. Enjoy, enjoy...

  9. Shells and teeth. That's great. As for the clocks, I wish we'd stop with this rubbish, already. Keep it one time, all the time.

    2. No interest. Too much work to do writing, to spend time on that

  10. I'd leave the teeth back on the beach for someone's to discover at another time ... not the kind of garden whimsy I want in my garden. Glad the weather has improved and hope it stays the same or better for the rest of your stay. All around us lost hydro, but not us, probably not as much snow as predicted but then those weather people like to hype it right up and scare the wits out of us. We actually hit 0 celsius yesterday and today it has hit +1 ... first time in over 38 days we have been around 0 ... must be a heatwave for us :)

  11. We have already talked about that Linda.....just kidding about taking them home!
    Glad you were safe from the blackouts....
    Temps are rising!

  12. I think the most disturbing thing about those teeth is the colour of them!! If you have false teeth, surely you would go for white!!!!! Eeewww!!!! Leave them behind for sure!!!!! xx

  13. Did you happen to ask "Deb" if she'd lost some teeth? Just a thought.
    I'm heading to the kitchen to bake cookies.
    Have a lovely evening, Linda (smile).

  15. Hi Linda, we spend our summers on the coast of Oregon and we are always finding the strangest things on the beach, but that's part of the fun. Looks like those teeth could bring about another story and mystery. Sounds like life is good. Have a great week!

    1. So glad you understand Cheryl.....

  16. Oh, yes Linda, I will be singing that song all day now, he he. That is fun, finding the teeth, and who knows where they came from and how long they have been floating in the ocean. There is an artist I like who makes wonderful art installations from things she finds on the beach, driftwood, shells, and lots of oddities too. I am glad you spoke to Deb, another Canadian escaping to Florida! Our DD is getting lots of work supply teaching - she says it is because all the regulars have gone off to Florida :) Your weather sounds nice this week. We are about to have another heat wave today, expected to break the all-time record for a March day here : 39 degrees! YUK!! Off to sew with girlfriends...

  19. Hmmm... interesting find. But please post a shell pic without the chompers. Kinda kills the mood! lol
    A lot of my friends are still without power since last night - it was certainly milder today but going back to -27C tonight. From +2C earlier. Insane.
    I am glad you found out about the non-creepy lady. Wow - three months there. How lovely for her.

    3. I thought it was funny too... but just wanted to see some without the teeth because I love shell collections. In fact I got some beautiful shells from Betsy's shop last year. So many different colours and designs and shapes. I wish my feet were in some sand right now!
      C-c-c-c-c-c-old tonight. I feel for those who are still without power.

    4. Good old TO! That old grid needs to be fixed!
