This cheerful fellow collects
treasures left behind by the Spanish, British and Confederate troops.
Their missions, forts and settlements
now left to time and climate.
Some of his finds washed ashore from
sailing ships which discovered the
uncharted coastal shoals
before entering safe harbors.
The handcrafted oar and buoy are
exceptional finds.
The chest holds a wondrous collection
of seashells found on the beach.
