After a storm, a beach can be littered with shells and driftwood just waiting to be gathered
along the shoreline. A "sand dollar day" is a lucky day when a beachcomber comes upon
a fully intact sand dollara delicate, sand-colored disc the size of a silver dollar, a five-
pointed star etched into its center. It feels really special to pick up a good sand dollar. The
glory of one newly found, however, fades when the sand is brushed off and the prize sits
dry and lifeless next to a piece of driftwood and perhaps a few strands of seaweed on the
mantle.
