File this under places that I'd like to visit. North of Pt. Arena, CA along the coast lies Ft. Bragg, CA. Years ago, the public dump was along this stretch of beach.As the years went by, all the refuse was claimed by the ocean, including the broken glass. As winter storms roll through, it rolls more of the now polished glass back onto Glass Beach.
This small area of beach glows in the sun with glass pebbles. People come from all over to find treasures from what was once trash.
I worked once on a project in Pt. Arena, but I was only there briefly. I'd like to drive up the Pacific Coast Highway to Pt. Arena again and go further north to Glass Beach. Perhaps it will make a nice long weekend trip next September.

Isn't it ironic how we throw our garbage at the earth and she returns it to us as art?
Take air pollution for example; we pump waste into the air but yet it creates the most picturesque sunsets.
