Just back from Amelia Island and St. Augustine, Fl

September in Florida is alway chancey -- this was my first time in northern Florida, and it was rainy and humid every day.   But, that didn't stop us! We toured Amelia Island's historic Fernandina Beach, photographed the old Victorians, and even stopped in the SanJon gallery (which is now carrying my sea glass jewelry).  I found out about an area to beachcomb, and fortunately found a number of great sea glass pieces.  I will attach a picture or two here. 

In St. Augustine we saw the old town, stayed at a bed and breakfast that had a martini bar! Henry Flagler's hotels are now a hotel, a museum, and a college dorm! What a way to go to college.  If you don't know about Henry Flagler -- he was an entrepreneur who conceived the idea to develop Florida, and tried to build a rail line from NY to Cuba!

Lucky Sea Glass Blog is Back!

Just thought I'd start blogging, for real.  This summer I went to Norway, and way up North to see the polar bears, walrus, and fantastic scenery.  Then we were off to tour Sweden and Finland.  It is very hard to find sea glass in these cold waters -- but I did find a lovely green piece on a remote island near the North Pole, where in the 1800's there had been a whaling station  (in the summers).  The currents sometimes bring in debris from Russia.  I was so excited to find sea glass there -- it was the only piece I saw.

More pictures and news next time.  Please keep checking back!  http://www.luckyseaglass.com/
