I was out hunting for more horseshoe crab shells last weekend. I went down to Eddi Creek which leads into Mosquito Lagoon just a couple of miles from my home.This area is part of Merrit Island animal reserve, which surrounds the Kennedy Space Center. (where they launch the shuttle from)

With the storm just off the coast though, we’ve been getting pounded with high winds and rain the last week, so the lagoon water was really high so I didn’t have a lot of luck getting the shells. I did get one (I usually pick up about a hundred or so per trip) … but mostly I got wet. With the water being so high I was doing a lot of wading.
