Visting Holden Beach NC to shell its beach after beach renourishment/dredging

[@juanitaling6070]

Holden Beach looks like a phenomenal place to visit soon. I am going to have to start searching for beach renourishment schedules! 😳

[@SaltyReflections]

LOL! I know right! We can be like the dredging crew groupies! 😂🤪

I LOVE Holden Beach! I haven’t been there for 30 years, but my memories can’t be taken away. I was there shortly after my father passed. The walks on the beach, all the shells and the warmth of the sun was very healing! Thank you for taking me with you!❤

[@SaltyReflections]

Thanks for the comment and coming along with us on Holden Beach. This was our first time visiting Holden Beach. Loved it.

[@joelmcmahan7386]

Another fun trip with my favorite SALTY couple Oliver and Stef. That bridge over the intercostal water way looks like it’s over 50 feet in the air. Glad you guys enjoyed your trip to NC and thank you both for taking the xtra gear to bring us along. Like Oliver I would bring my fishing gear along with me. Wish SALTY REFLECTIONS family and fans the best of life from me and mine. Gods speed to ya all. 🎥💯👍

[@SaltyReflections]

We had an awesome time. Hope everything is good with y'all. When we were on top of the bridge we could see the entire island. It was a beautiful view. Stay safe and take care!

[@joelmcmahan7386]

It's awesome that you guys have each other for support. We're thankful there's so many people enjoying our videos. Thanks! We had a wonderful time at Holden Beach and the Shells were everywhere. Happy Shelling!

[@karenclark9913]

You mentioned there are people who even love the broken shells, that would be me. Oh dont take me wrong, I love whole shells, but even the broken ones to me are beautiful were were once a living thing. I love going walking and searching with you, thank you for always taking us along. ❤️

[@SaltyReflections]

We are those people too! 🤗🙋🏼‍♀️ We have lots of broken shells in our collection too! I have become more selective now that my shell collection has grown to the point that I've actually started sharing them 😂 ... thru channel giveaways, Patron gifts, as well as some sales ... just because I don't have anymore room to put our new finds if I didn't! 🤪 Shell hoarder problems! 😂😆 & I still keep the broken pieces of some shells that aren't common to our area. 🤦🏼‍♀️ They are really cool & show the physical structure of the exoskeleton! 😁🙃

[@dbronson7902]

I’d love to see my 3 year old grandson’s eyes light up when he sees that box of treasures!! He is a brand new sheller and gets so excited.

You make me pea green with envy. Our history with Holden Beach started over 35 years with my Grandmother and her house then we built on the west end. Our kids call the beach “Poppy’s Beach”. Our beach house has all the comforts of home and leave bathing suits so we are ready to hit the ocean. I have really enjoyed your other videos. You are blessed to be able to travel and to share that blessing with us.

[@SaltyReflections]

I could just sit and each and listen to the waves too. Finding the coral is my favorite. I had never heard of a sea biscuit but they are interesting finds.

[@SaltyReflections]

We have found a few Sea Biscuits, but we had never seen a beach covered with them like this. It was thousands of them washed up. Thanks for the comment and watching! Stay safe.

Thanks.

[@rescuingthosehollerdogs4606]

I love watching you find the beach treasures I can no longer travel due to serious medical issues but can see the beauty of the ocean thru you

[@SaltyReflections]

You're one of the reasons why we keep making the videos. Thanks so much for watching!

[@pennycox2658]

I am watching this for the first time. It brings so many beach memories. On June 27 2004 my husband was playing in the ocean as always. I heard laughter that turned to screams. My husband had a fatal cardiac a cardiac cardiac arrhythmia. It began the new normal of our lives. Our kids were 14 and 11 and still after all these years we are still struggling with the loss. I am taking notes because my sister and I are planning a late summer trip and a winter shelling trip. Now I don’t know what each of you did/do for a career/job. I need the name of your financial planner. LOL I can smell the beach scents. When we come over on the bridge we roll down the windows and breathe deeply. We take a picture and send it to the family that are not down or back home. May the Lord bless your lives with the joy I have had just watching your Holden Beach shelling adventure. Safe travels where ever you are shelling.

[@SaltyReflections]

😔 I am so sorry, Ms. Penny, to hear about your husband! Prayers for you & your family! 🙏 I can't imagine your loss! How tragic! 💔😭 I can imagine the beach brings mixed emotions for you & your family now, understandably. Although, we all say we would like "to go" doing something we love, but being the loved one left behind, I can't imagine you would feel any comfort in that at all though. 🙏 We can only trust in God's will & try to live everyday as if it may be our last. Several of our loved ones (2 of our parents, our grandmothers, my sister twice & several friends) are/were widowed & to be honest, 😔💔 the loss of our loved ones & the struggles we see their spouses endure has encouraged us to make some of the changes in our life that we have in the last few years in order for us to be able to do some of the things we enjoy more often in life. If you follow along with our channel often, you see we try to get out & enjoy as much as we can as often as we can in this short life together! We are very aware from going thru our own family's losses that one day we are going to wake up to a whole different normal life! We know that one day, we won't be able to watch these videos together & laugh & joke or argue with one another, that we'll be watching just for the memory of one or the other & eventually our family watching for the memory of us both! 😭 We are blessed with each new memory the Lord allows us to make together & with our families! As far as careers, we have had a goal of being able to live near the coast every since we were young, so Oliver & I have both worked 2 & sometimes 3 jobs at a time for over 20 years (& still do), to be able to achieve our dreams of living by the sea! 🤑 We are pretty frugal people & not worried about "keeping up with the Jones" & we have sacrificed & saved a lot to be able to live the way we do now. We don't live in the biggest house (matter of fact our house is tiny), we don't live in the "best" neighborhood or in the "best" area, we don't have new boats or cars, we catch a lot of the food we eat, we shop at thrift stores & yard sales & we reuse, recycle & repurpose as much as possible! & most importantly - I'm not ashamed, matter of fact, I'm PROUD of all that! We are both from poor families & to be able to achieve the lifestyle we love is 💯 worth the work & sacrifice we have had to make! I'm glad we were both taught that if we had dreams we were gonna have to work to achieve them! Of course it would've been easier maybe just to be born into "rich" families but 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷‍♂️😂. I would definitely put Holden Beach on your list to visit. It has been one of our favorite places that we have gone as far as shelling! It is easily accessible without a long walk to AWESOME finds! We hope you ladies have a great time! Happy Shelling! & Thank you for sharing with us! Bless you! 🙏🫂

[@pennycox2658]

@@SaltyReflections Stephanie, thank you for your kind words and for making me more aware of everybody has had loss in their lives. Your family has had more than one family should. I hope you know my comments about your jobs/careers was not asked with ill-intent. I have gone back and watched your videos from your oldest to videos posted within a year. I have some down time with ice packs so I plan to finish those over the weekend. 😁 The amount of time just to record and edit the videos is more than a full time job. I want to let you know how much I have enjoyed spending time with you and your friends and family. The trip to Key West looked like everybody was having a blast. Your grandchildren are so cute!! Until your next shelling trip video take care and stay safe!

So I was just sharing, giving some background info so you guys can get to know us a little better. 👍😁 You're right! ✅️ KZbin is a full time job.

It's always fun exploring a new beach! Glad you got a chance to do that. Also happy to see the new shell bags!😊 I can't believe there weren't hardly any people out there. Hard to know if the dredging broke the shells or if the surf does it. I was pretty disappointed the renourishment at Honeymoon Island state park where I shell didn't seem to produce the shells that other beaches did. I know you were in "heaven" with all the babies' ears, Stephanie!😁 All those shell dumps remind me a little of Lido Key outside Sarasota. Looking forward to part 2!

Thanks for joining along!

This beach is beautiful, I love olives and the baby's ear and shark eye's, I feel the same way you do i could just sit there and check through all those goodies, thank you so much for sharing, one day i'm visiting this beach!!

[@SaltyReflections]

It was definitely a beautiful beach to visit. The shells were amazing! More shell finds to come from Holden Beach.

[@cathyhodosky513]

I just love watching you guys shelling. I will be in SC for the 1st time ever next week. Bluffton, Beaufort, Murrells Inlet and then back to Charleston. Looking to relocate so we will be checking all areas along the coast. Beaufort is my 1st choice!! Maybe we will run into you on a beach somewhere. I’ll be the crazy lady running up to you like you’re a celebrity, to share my finds lol. Thank you for sharing your beautiful videos.

[@SaltyReflections]

Thank you for the chuckle!🤣😂 Wish you the best on finding your happy place.

[@scartissue1779]

How fortunate you guys are!! I live by lake Michigan and dont have the shell beauty.

[@SaltyReflections]

We loved visiting Holden Beach! It was a great shelling beach. Thanks for joining along for the adventure!

[@rachelleandrichard]

You guys are the best. I love when you upload shelling videos. Yay, lots of Oliver's olives. And those fossils, wow! Did you catch a fish?

[@rachelleandrichard]

Yes please, visits to other beaches would be awesome.

[@rachelleandrichard]

The Native American pipe find was epic Oliver! Definitely an incredible treasure. I also love how you guys are together, the way you speak to each other shows a deep love and respect in your marriage.

[@SaltyReflections]

Thanks for coming along with us! Nope, no fish. I'll get over it. LOL! We'll keep trying to share as much as we can.

[@claytonjames4622]

Yeah buddy! Lol enjoyed video!!!

[@SaltyReflections]

Thanks 👍

[@pamscott151]

You've got so much stuff in the wagon, where you gonna put the shells? You need a second wagon! 😅 Do you ever sell any of your shells? You two are perfect filming together. Full of info and fun! Love your videos! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@SaltyReflections]

We packed our wagon & thought we might just sit on the beach & Oliver fish a little. 🤪😵‍💫 But the shells drew us in! We wound up shelling instead of sitting & fishing! 😆 We do have an eBay shop (link in video description) where we sell some shells occasionally ... if Oliver twists my arm enough to give up a few. 😱🫣😄 We don't have much listed currently. It's so time-consuming, but we need to get some more things listed. Thanks for coming along for the adventure! 🌊🐚👣

[@oceanluvngal]

I can only imagine the thrill of finding fossilized shells. I live on Prince Edward Island, Canada where fossils tend to be of wood and ferns.

[@SaltyReflections]

It was a blast! Thanks for joining us! How fun to find any kind of fossils, right!? 💙🥰🦖🐚🌿

[@cindyheimdahl227]

The shells from the East Coast are so different from the West Coast! I have watched you guys Shell enough that I can call out the names as soon as you pick them up. Love your adventures!!!

[@SaltyReflections]

That's awesome! It's hard for us to believe so many people are watching our videos. Thanks so much! Maybe one day we'll get to see the West Coast and all it has to offer.

[@Crazy.Sheller]

I wish my husband would shell with me, your so lucky

[@SaltyReflections]

Yes ma'am, we are blessed to share a lot of similar interests! 🙏🥰 He tries to act like he only shells 🙄 because of me, but y'all see how excited he gets! 🤩😂 He loves it! It's a treasure hunt! Show your hubby some of the cool antique bottles, bullet casings & 4000 year old Indian ceremonial pipe artifact Oliver has found while shelling, you might talk him into venturing out with you next time to see what he might find! 😉 Thanks for joining us! 💙🌊👣🐚

[@maryanndonnarumma7438]

I will definitely look into your Patreon! Thank you for taking us along on your vacation! My favorite shellers!! ❤️❤️ I bet there are at least 30 turkey wings lol. Have you ever thought about doing a monthly subscription box? I would order it! I’m hooked too!

[@SaltyReflections]

Thank you! At this point we don't make any money from our videos when we take out expenses. Thankfully we have other sources of income. Any donations are appreciated in helping make the videos.

[@indyfan2056]

It's good to join you in another beach walk! I'm so happy to see you found some of those sea biscuits! And its so interesting how one beach can be so different than another and also that they are ever changing from day to day.

[@SaltyReflections]

Thanks for coming along with us!

[@janetphillips8196]

Awesome finds hun. I would love a small box of shells...who wouldnt....lol. i have an econoid...aka sea biscuit.

[@SaltyReflections]

Thanks for watching!

[@willispautz]

I’ve been finding a ton of intact conch shells on the beach at wild dunes. Park south of it on the public side and walk up the beach into the dark sand

[@SaltyReflections]

Thanks for sharing the info!

[@debbietaylor9392]

Been there nice family beach

[@SaltyReflections]

Absolutely! We loved it! 🌊🐚🥰 Thanks for coming along!

[@ncermak]

Awesome video!! I wanna go there to!!!

[@SaltyReflections]

YES! If it is at all feasible, definitely YOU SHOULD! It was so fun! A SHELLERS ABSOLUTE DREAM! 😍🤩🤗🐚

[@DeeDee-dl7sl]

Yall find the best shells!

[@SaltyReflections]

We spend a lot of time looking for them.

[@stacyfeulner6039]

I love the shells you guys find I love shell it’s just a shame I don’t live near the sea shore ..we only wish but I do collect them … one of my co worker went to Porto Rico and brought me back a really big shell back and even glazed it but the possibility of moving I packed all my shells away .. but ur shells ur finding r beautiful

[@SaltyReflections]

Thanks for coming along for the adventure! We love searching for treasures & taking y'all along for the journey! 💙 🌊🐚👣

[@fredamoore1743]

Wow! I havent been to Holden in years but this video makes me want to go back. Love all the olives, coral and shark eye. I would love to find a sea biscuit and I love anything fossilized. My rarest find is a 5 inch spearhead from Edisto Island. So fun to watch you guys shell!

[@SaltyReflections]

Now's the time to go back and visit Holden Beach if you love shells. It's loaded with treasures. The spearhead is a great find. We also found a spearhead on a riverbank 10 miles or so from Edisto. Sad to say, it was broken. Still a cool find.

[@MeMyselfandEyeSeeYou]

It's beautiful there. I live in the outer banks and y'all would love it here I'll bet. Pea Island is the best place to shell here.

[@SaltyReflections]

Thanks for the info and watching our video! We've been talking about visiting the outer banks and we'll definitely have to check out Pea Island. Is it accessible by car?

[@MeMyselfandEyeSeeYou]

@@SaltyReflections yes it is. It's in the Oregon Inlet area which also offers a great fishing experience. There's a 1200 foot bridge that was converted to a walk on fishing pier as well as Jennette's Pier and Nags Head Pier which are nearby. They are open most of the year here.

[@SaltyReflections]

@@MeMyselfandEyeSeeYou Awesome! Thanks for the info! 👍🤗
