I think we’re really not appreciating limpets enough. They’re just a snail with extra shell and they’re equally adorable

I need to post more updates from this trip to Monterey but here are some of the seashells I found that day.

Carving a masterpiece, the Limpet Embrace, a story of intertidal love. Let me love you with my foot.

One of our neighbors wanted me to try some locally milled tan oak, my review is that the wood is nice to carve, but the grain has enough separations that I wouldn’t attempt doing detailed work. Carve for the wood you use and this is perfect for limpets.
