Footprints in the sand 8 '09

Have you ever noticed how certain themes seem to pop up, and once you notice  them once, you start seeming them everywhere.

I was admiring a  giant sand sketch  of a footprint that someone had put on Pawleys Island  beach this evening

The I looked down, and what is right next to my footprint, but an oyster shell that looked remarkably like a miniature footprint.   I took the shell  home and made a necklace out of it.
