Monday’s Visit To Paradise

[pinterest] You know those unexpected days when you have such fun and enjoyment you never want it to end?I had a day like that yesterday! I had such a perfect day at a little island off Boston Harbor Shore:It was a sunny and beautiful day. I went with my sister-in-law and friend. They are avid sea-glass hunters and know which spots are the best to find sea glass. We had to ride a ferry over to the island which was fun in itself:I really enjoyed being on my own for the whole day without housework, business, family obligations, computer or phone. I left at 7:00 am and did not return home until 9:00 pm. Doesn’t that sound nice? I do not do this fun stuff often enough! Here are a few pictures to show you how deserted this island was:And this was the view across the bay:Boston Skyline:It was low tide so the sea glass search conditions were perfect.Can you spy the sea glass in this picture? Hint- it is green:I was going to sit and read and maybe nap, but searching for cool stuff was too addictive. Here is a little piece of my prize I brought home:And extra cool, this island was where the movie ‘Shutter Island’ was filmed. Leo. Sigh….:This island was home to Fort Andrews and active in harbor defense from 1904 to the end of World War II.

Have you had one of those remarkable days lately? It was quite the adventure and I can not wait for the next one! I will show you all my treasures when they are cleaned up and bathed.Did you find the sea glass in the above photo? If not, here is a closer shot:Let me know if you found it! Thanks for stopping by!
