Greetings from Lin and me still traveling in Cochabamba, Bolivia.
Oh boy!!! We're in a City of Eternal Spring (there are several claiming that title around the world). Weather a little crisp in the morning and shirt sleeve midday.
But no sea glass here. In 12 days, back to the coast of Peru, where we will be checking out some more new spots.
Daughter Kelsey's wedding is only 10 days away....split emotions, as usual.
Below you'll see some pretty interesting finds and also questions that you may be able to answers. Remember to comment on what others submit, it makes them happy!
Have some great spring hunting.

Here is a little reminder to check out the upload features on the fun page, where you can contribute your comments, questions, and photos on what you find at the beach or just about anything to do with beach glass.
