Mowry Beach

Mowry Beach is located in Lubec, Maine. Head towards Campobello Island, and just before you hit the border crossing, hang a tight right and follow the road all the way to the end. It's a nice, long beach - some decent beach glass finds. We went for a day drive this past Sunday and it was COLD! (notice all the hoodies pulled tight!) Some shots from the day:


Here's Scott. He is determined to make seaglass-finding an Olympic sport. He finds the tiniest scrids of seaglass EVER, and then shreaks with joy. His rules are: you MUST stay in your own seaglass-finding 'lane', and no throwing junk into other people's lanes. Way to go, Scott.

'Nugget' beach

You just can't beat beach combing in Washington County, Maine. We went to a new beach a couple of weekends ago. (exact location will be protected) The beach glass finds were absolutely incredible:

the 'nugget' (largest piece of sea glass of all time!)

As my mother said, "it's once in a lifetime that you find a 'nugget'!". She was the first one to find a 'nugget' on our first trip to this beach. Then, the next weekend, I found an even larger nugget at the same beach. It makes you wonder what was this before it was molded and shaped by the crashing waves? Our thoughts, an old railroad insulator: 



Any other ideas?
