Treasure Hunting



We are hooked on treasure hunting. Not the kind of treasure hunting that is going to make us any money though. We have been watching what washes up on the beaches to see if there is anything we can use (or want), and lo and behold we have found a few things – lots of very pretty sea glass, some nice shells, a couple of drink cartons to put bottles in and a very interesting glass bottle with oriental alphabet characters (that we have filled with sea glass), sea beans and a couple of things that we don’t know what to do with. The great thing is that everything is 100% returnable. It is amazing what washes up – like fluorescent bulbs, toothbrushes, lots of verrrrrry large rope and more trash than you can imagine. We saw a boat that was in two pieces and twice we’ve seen outboard engines and many shoes, although no matching pairs. Today I even came across a toilet seat!
I do hope everyone who is reading this blog realizes that most pictures (if not all) can be clicked on to make them larger so you can actually see what is in the picture - I should have told you this in the beginning.
