Though we’ve been vacationing at Kiawah Island for 16 years, this was a year marked by firsts.
The first "first" was bicycling to the end of the earth Island past the "crescent" to discover where all the sand dollars live. That was a coup of near Biblical proportion.
The second "first" occurred within hours of me making the statement, "Ya know, in all these years, I’ve never seen a shark’s tooth at Kiawah. That is a VERY good thing…".
Imagine my surprise walking along the beach not long after and discovering this:
Teeth with their own pair of teeth??? That sucker was attached to something before it was beached…enough reason to keep me close to the shore.
Oops! I forgot this was supposed to be a wordless post; here’s a bonus shot for the faux pas~
YIKES!
Wow, that would be a nasty bite.
Happy not-so-wordless Wednesday!

Oh my that is nasty! Glad you got it!
It was really a blessing that you found it on shore. Haha! Happy WW! 🙂
What big teeth you have grandma….
That would make a cooooool necklace. And I’m not just saying that because I have one! Sharks are so awesome. I love to watch them, just so long as they’re not swimming toward me in a feeding frenzy.
FYI, I’m hosting my very first photo project beginning this weekend. It’d be great if you could fit in one or all seven days. Some details are already up but more will be up Saturday.
YIKES.. but that is very cool. I some day will go to hawaii
Ouch!!
That is so cool, I would love to find stuff like that on the beach. Unfortunately it’s usually just trash!
Great eyes to find those teeth…
NICE tooth!! I love shark’s teeth!!
Happy WW!
Oh NOOOOOO! Am I going to have to keep my eyes open for sharks next Spring?? I won’t share this with my family.
Nice nails, BTW. 🙂
Oh heck no! I would not go in the water. Dun-Dun-Dun.
My sisters and parents went to Kiawah Island a few years ago. We then went to the Southern Shores in NC a couple years after they went (we didn’t go to Kiawah Island because I was pregnant with my twins…although I didn’t know it was twins at the time)…they decided that Kiawah Island was a lot more fun…I’m sure we’ll go there in a year or 2!
Wow, what an interesting find. Thank goodness you did not catch up with the former owner 😉
Yikes! I’d be staying on shore after finding that!!
Wow! Good thing it came solo!
That is so cool. I’d be spooked for sure though after finding it. Still, a real treasure.
Great story and photos! Sounds really dreamy there!
robin girl! that’s cheating! no TALKING on WW.
I know it’s tough for you, but please try harder next week, okay?
love ya, friend

Lucky find! (And better to find it on the beach than still in the critter’s mouth — if ya know what I mean…)
what an interesting tooth! Did u get it check for its age and origin?
Everybody’s got something they had to leave behind One regret from yesterday that just seems to grow with time. There’s no use looking back or wondering How it could be now or might have been.
