As someone who can only go out rarely and only take the best pieces, i wish i had the time a proximity to a great beach like north Beach in Port Townsend. But as such it is a question which I have as a collector if someone had the time a proximity to a beach such as this is if one goes often and gathers the best pieces of the beach and then resells them for profit would then be similar to someone who gathers bad pieces to not allow them to polished and then available to people who rarely get out to collect them? To me the two are very similar in question since one disallows them to grow and be special pieces to be collected and the other gathers and resells for personal gain and also does not allowed them to be collected especially when the they say people should only take "what they need and what is ready." It seems like what is ready is what is ready to sell.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15891887457845270651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38916699.post-62406321472037615232015-11-17T04:48:35.326-08:002015-11-17T04:48:35.326-08:00Amazing story, and beautiful finds.

I'm visiting your blog a lot at the moment, having become a committed beachcomber and sea glass collector over the past year -- your posts on specific colours are particularly useful. Thank you!

I too am glad to have the beaches quieter now the summer has finished. Glad too to find your blog.surfergrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17153485646242425044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38916699.post-50406533968434609962013-02-23T10:50:00.034-08:002013-02-23T10:50:00.034-08:00Those things you are referring to as "drawer ...Those things you are referring to as "drawer pulls" may often (and more likely) be glass bottle stoppers. I've found a few of them. I also own some antique glass bottles with ground glass stoppers which is how I put two and two together.DaraShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03382943555612489469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38916699.post-41042486230732747102013-02-21T02:57:40.746-08:002013-02-21T02:57:40.746-08:00So happy to have found your blog!

Unfortunately, I do not find the colors and quality that you do - though every now and again I do break out into a happy dance on the beach! Hope your wife's surgery went well.Lori Bowring Michaudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06433181505904271679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38916699.post-79044609054213943782010-06-16T15:00:23.463-07:002010-06-16T15:00:23.463-07:00Great post.

It's disheartening to see these "secret" places move into such bright light, be it beach, mountain or otherwise. <br /><br />I'm sorry to hear of your mother's passing. I hope you're able to return focus to beach combing and photography soon.kadfotohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04158370617255046488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38916699.post-59802667740201509952009-02-09T12:00:00.000-08:002009-02-09T12:00:00.000-08:00Gorgeous finds!Gorgeous finds!kadfotohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04158370617255046488noreply@blogger.com
