<p>There were eleventy-zillion and seven nice <a href="http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/271766523/bowerbirds-new-album-and-side-project-made-in-diy" target="_blank">amulet</a> supplies strewn along the point that stretches out into the ocean. We filled a bag with the best of them, but there were a few special items we couldn’t keep, like a heavily barnacled lighter, this bundle of hermit crabs and corals, and this coral yuletide tree. </p>
<p>We threw back the living animals, but we kept this tree, because we knew it couldn’t survive now that it was uprooted, so it’s our lone holiday decoration in the beach house. Very festive.</p>
