THOUGHTS AS GENTLE AS GRASS BLOWING IN THE WIND....

Today will be remembered by what was lost, loved ones, security however false it may have been, simpler times.  It will also be remembered by what was gained; knowledge that a few can not take away from others what is truly important.  Gentle breezes, a place to call home, family, good health...... probably the things people everywhere hope to enjoy.  Hope your day contained some gentle thoughts of your own.

GLASS BEACH

Garbage dumped into the Pacific Ocean becomes treasure for others many years later. Broken jars and bottles that once contained medicines, liquor, or who knows what, are now precious gems that still retain their brilliant color!  These pieces of glass have had their sharp edges slowly ground away, forming smooth pebble-like  stones. A foggy cool misty day many years ago was spent scavenging for these bits and pieces of history.  With each  colorful piece, our voices could be heard announcing the discovery! Glass Beach is located on the Northern California coast near the fishing town of Eureka.
