Girls Night Out at Rouge with Michele McPhee

My good friend Jackie Burkhart, myself, my mother and Jackie's friend Diane (doesn't she look like Diane Keaton - last photo far right?) were at Rouge this past Friday night to meet Michele McPhee from 96.9 Wtkk Boston Talks... and it was no surprise that Michele ROCKED and was as down to earth as I thought she would be.  

Rouge is located on Derby Street in Salem - we are huge supporters of their store. They have everything you need for your body, face and hair and are VERY knowledgeable about their products... not to mention all the staff are just wonderful!

Organizing My Glass and Pottery...

I took about three hours yesterday to go through my glass and organize it.  I took out pieces that were good for jewelry... including pottery and dumped the rest into a large tote that is now about 3/4 full.  I need to start designing some new pieces and this will make it much easier to find what I am looking for! 

Sunday Morning Walk...

Although it was a good 23 degrees cooler today with a crisp wind off the ocean... I totally enjoyed an early morning walk. The fact that it was low tide made it even better. I found a jade marble, an orange flash piece, a penny from 1993 - not a find but interesting how it has decayed... and many beautiful pieces of glass and pottery!

After the Storm...

The pictures above are of the three day storm from last weekend - and a few pieces of the glass collected from one of my secret spots after. The wind was so strong when I was taking the storm pics - that it was rocking my van. It was a very high tide and the waves at times were coming over the railing.  Storms rally up the ocean floor bringing new goodies to the shore!

The Hunt

I am loving the nice 50+ degree weather and the warm sun! I spent last weekend grazing at my favorite spots... gathering up the many pieces of sea glass the winter has left behind.  I must have been a pirate in a past life as I am always on the "hunt" for treasures whenever I am walking the beach....Aaarrrgh!
