We hope you are enjoying a beautiful spring. Here in the Pacific Northwest, we are happy to have had a beautiful day yesterday. Lin and I were at the beach and made some rare finds... and came home sunburned for the first time in many months. Check out this unusual sea glass bead that Lin found: How she can see these things among millions of rocks and pebbles, who knows! She was looking as she was walking and at first thought it was a piece of plastic trash but went ahead and picked it up anyway. She was pleasantly surprised. To say the least.
