The Day I Found My Other Piece of Orange Beach Glass

I have already submitted a story about how I found my first orange piece of sea glass. I found my second in a weird way.

I was in Florida, at a different beach than the first. I had found a purple piece that day and had retired from finding any more but I kept on looking.

After a while of finding only browns and clears I gave up. When I left to the beach I looked through the pieces and what do you know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of the pieces I had dismissed as a brown was a shocking orange piece of beach glass. It was pretty surprising but I had been finding a lot of browns and after a while I just started dismissing everything as a brown.

It goes to show, always look through what you find after!
