This evening there were olive snails everywhere on the beach.  The tide was out and the olives were making all kinds of patterns in the wet sand. The olive shells here at Pass-a-Grille beach are known as "Lettered Olives".  You can read more about them here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lettered_olive
