Back Shore

The Birthplace of SeaGlass!

Today was indeed the calm before the storm on the Back Shore of Gloucester, MASS.  A lunchtime stroll along this coastal walkway led me to a bed of rocks that was never there before!  Alas, the harsh winter had its way, but left behind new treasure hunting grounds.  These photos tell me that this is the stuff seaglass is made of - nature's very own "rock tumbler!"  Enjoy these photos and remember that it takes 30-50 years to make a good piece of seaglass!
