Yes.... they're amazing.Pretty blue eggshell.
Fantastic.... especially with the title!
I wonder also. It's a thrift shop (an upscale one), but Helpful Shop is a new twist on the name for me.And what is a Helpful Shop, she asks, somewhat hesitantly

They run a steam train too, at times, but I've never been in the right place at the right moment to capture it. During tourist season, the train starts in the mountains at Roaring Camp, about 1.5 miles from our house, and runs through the redwoods, down through town to the Boardwalk at the beach.nice as Beach Hill is I kind of prefer the hustle of Beach Street and THAT train !
Yesssss....And then you can eat them!

Thanks Ann! It made me a wee bit sad though..... And just a short way from this some animal had dug up a turtle's nest and eaten all the eggs.... just a hole in the dirt and scattered eggshells remained. I knew there were turtles in the ponds and lake along the path, but didn't know they would lay eggs so close to the path. It would have been amazing to be there when they hatched.... who knows, maybe there are other nests and I will be granted such a sight.
I bet people are forever stopping in front of this house and taking photos. It’s soooooo photogenic. Wonderful colours on this one Ted.On Beach Hill, two blocks up from the Boardwalk
