Excerpts From Mary Beth's "The Sea Glass Blog": After a call from the Travel Channel, I agreed to help with a show on sea glass hunting. So I packed a suitcase, took a night flight to San Francisco, grabbed a latte and met "the crew" and huntin' buddy, Charles, at a quiet marina at 8am one summer morning in July.
The spiffy new kayaks borrowed from a local outfitter, awaited us on the dock. We hooked on waterproof sound packs and discussed a quick run-through of the show. Soon we floated away from shore. The TV show's producer, camera crew and sound guy followed us in their zippy Zodiak filming us as we ventured out; around rocky outcroppings, under a bridge, then into the rougher bay.
After paddling through the fog for about an hour, the wind and chop began push against us. Soon after, we ported on a beach, unloaded crew and gear. Then perfectly, the sun began to shine on our day.
The entire day was spent on a warm beach; hunting, sharing, watching wildlife and sifting through our pieces. The show's host spent some extra time with me and some of my highly rare pieces . . . . . . . Photos and more here >
