My husband's catch of the day. He went much further up the beach than the rest of us.

These photos are long over due. We contacted David while visiting my mom and step-dad in Port Ludlow, WA and asked for the directions to North Beach in PT. Thank you for the fun afternoon, David. Here is what we found on June 22, 2009.

First Time to North Beach - Prize Red

A little smaller than a dime.

continued...here is the prize find of the day by my step-dad.

Lin says, "Check out this book!" -

puget sound beaches for sea glass
Afoot & Afloat North Puget Sound
This book is a must-have for sea glass lovers hunting for treasures in the beautiful Puget Sound area. Lin and I own a copy and it has details of how to get to just about every accessible beach, cove, boat ramp, etc. Even better, it goes into the history of the particular beaches.

For example, the closest beach to our temporary quarters here in Sequim, WA, is a beach called Port Williams. We wondered why in the world it is called a "port." All there is now is a boat ramp and a tiny county park surrounded by woods and fields.

In detail, this book tells us that it once was the stop along a steamer route and had a post office, dance hall, restaurant, and residences. Now there isn't even a portapottie that we could find. But you can imagine the possibilities of old glass on the beaches described in this book - and other books of this series.

*Although it doesn't include a map to North Beach itself, it does talk about it and gives some historical color (Indians) to this beach.
