{g} As a Floridian, your choice in memorabilia wouldn't be mine, even
though I haven't been to the Keys.  Though, this reminds me of
complaints against folk pocketing pieces of the Great Wall in China
and it being discouraged.  However, with the beach, the ocean washes
up and takes away stuff all the time.  I'd have to agree with a
friend's choice in requesting autumn leaves from northern trees.  She
taped them to her office wall and they were quite pretty with the
different colors.

Also, pictures are good, especially if the grounds are different from
where you live.
