Walks on the beach have always fascinated me. In my over half century of life I been fortunate enough to walk the beaches of Normandy where my father lands D3, the sands of the Costa Brava with a backpack on my back in the 70′s, the beauty of Acadia, even the shores of Lake Superior on my sister’s 24 ft O’Day with her husband. I’m now taking care of my Aunt in Portland Oregon and seeing a coastline new to me though I’ve read about it often. I look forward to the release of the glass fishing balls the artists release. Each and every beach holds my heart, a continual renewal, found treasures, my papillons delight. That you for sharing a picture of these finds–they are beautiful

It’s kind of a sad statement with all the plastic in this world, but what a lovely way to re-purpose it and make it something beautiful
