Can you imagine if your full time job were hunting for beach glass?  Don't laugh too much.  Some folks actually do make a living from this.  Beach glass, especially in the states, is becoming harder and harder to find, and the jewelry made from it is only increasing in price.   However, with some extra time on my hands and some recent trips to some of the 'off the beaten path' coastal locations in Spain, you can say I am "long" beach glass.

Here are some pictures from our trip to the Cantabrian Coast with our friends Scott, Maxine and family.  I will note that Maxine was very selective about collecting beach glass.  While I tend to pick it all up and sort through it later, she kept only the whites, blues and teals.  None of that common green or brown glass for her!  And just look at these terrible spots we had to visit to find our treasured sea glass!

And here are a few shots which include Pirate Ben helping me search.  (Ben's class put on the show Peter Pan for the end of the year - and somehow - Ben's version of Peter Pan is actually Peter Man, a pirate and Peter Pan all in one!)
