"In the spring I have counted one hundred and thirty-six different kinds of weather inside of four and twenty hours." ~Mark Twain

For you beach combers and sea glassers, how have things been going with you? Like Mr. Twain noted, the weather is extremely variable right now.  Some of you are hitting the beaches during unusually warm weather.  Others, like Lin's mom on the Chesapeake, have had some unusual wintry conditions.  But spring never fails to arrive!!!

To be brief, the latest blogettes, etc, are listed below, and...

Since we rely 99% on you folks to send in your on-the-spot reports from all over the world, please keep on sending them in. Crafts photos, too!

Now, our greetings to you can't-live-without-it seaglass fan-addicts in far away countries. This week, we say hello for the first time to our viewers in Tanzania (Quamboni for now, one of at least 19 languages in your beautiful country), Nigeria (How now, Úsài, Cala, or Fofo, according to your language), and Oman (Marhaba), as well as you particular language!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here is a little reminder to check out the upload features on "Catch of the Day,", where you can contribute your photos on what you find at the beach today (tonight, tomorrow, whatever). It works so smooooooth.

If you have more than one photo you would like to share, feel free to send us an email by clicking on the pic of us above.

For this week, we would invite any of you to share a short story of your beach impressions (funny, sad, or exciting) and get a link to the website or blog of your choice.
