Day Two at Lynyard

This morning we picked up another couple in our dinghy and crossed over to Little Harbor about a mile by dinghy. We didn't take Laughter in Little Harbor because we would have to go in and out on high tide and didn't want to deal with that. The sea was a little choppy so Tom had his hands full trying to keep us all dry on the trip over. Little Harbor is the home of Pete's Pub. Next to Pete's is a museum and foundry. Randolf and Margot Johnston founded an art colony in Little Harbor in the 50,s. Randolf was an internationally known artist renowned for his lost wax casting in Bronze. Their son Pete now runs Pete's Pub and Gallery and makes life size marine bronzes and jewelry inspired by local motifs. We toured the museum/gift shop and then met another couple at the pub. The four of us hiked to a hidden beach area to hunt for Sea Glass. As Cindy put it we hit the mother load of sea glass. We were all happy with our new treasures. Sea glass is really nothing more than pieces of bottle that have rolled around in the surf for years. The sand and water has smoothed their edges and polished the glass. Jewelry made from sea glass is found in many of the gift shops and it's not cheap! The rarest find is a deep deep blue or purple. After a day of digging in the stones and hunting through the surf we returned to Pete's for a cold drink and dinner. As Tom says "another beautiful day in Paradise.
