Sea Glassing with my Friends - April 29

It was a beautiful day for sea glassing.  My four buddies (Sarah, Kristin, Michelle and Sabrina) and I had a GREAT day together.
We all met at the Gift Shop that I used to work at.    
The beach is up north a bit, about 30 minutes away.  We're off.

Michelle volunteered to drive, thanks Michelle!
"Sea Glass Beach" as we call it is a beach off the private property of a local farmer.  Our friend took us last year and swore us to secrecy.  Well, apparently, word is out and plenty of peaople know about it.  There is sea glass everywhere!  Last year I picked up 23 pounds in just one hour!  Now, I have so much sea glass, I am very picky and only pick up blues and greens.  
We were not 100% sure how to get there.  That was a bit of an adventure.

 


Sarah freaking out that she got sunscreen on her shirt.  We thought it was the dredded Habu snake and we all screamed.  We were in the middle of no where.






The middle of nowhere...


We had to trek through this tall grass and again the Habu snake was on everyone's minds.  Sarah was in front of me, kind of funny, she was shaking her keys trying to scare off any snakes.  Hilarious.



Michelle was not going anywhere until we told her that there was no snakes, bugs, spiders, creepy crawlies of any kind... 


Finally, we found the path to the beach... 






I have a lot of sea glass so I took pictures.

We brought a packed lunch and took a break by the shore.  Really relaxing.  



My girl, Michelle brought me my favorite thing:  Barbecue Potato Chips!  Just for me!  That is a true friend.

Am I lucky or what??!!



Sabrina brought cupcakes with my favorite combo:  chocolate cake with choclate icing. I had 2.  She insisted!  I had to go to the water and take a bath because I had chocolate all over me.  So good!  I think I have some frosting on my neck!  I didn't notice that before...

Time to find our way home.

A secret that made Sarah blush.
We will never tell.
On the way home, we had quite a few laughs.  Too much sun.




A great day with some of the best people anyone could ever know.
