"Can we go hunting for seaglass?" asks the 8 year old.
"Sure!" say the parents.
Hop into the car and 20 minutes we're exploring the pier by the Narragansett sea wall! This is why I love Rhode Island... one of the reasons anyway!
And it was a successful outing! Ben found this treasure. He and Julia decided it was the top of an old ink well.

And Julia claimed it was the best sea glass hunting day ever! She found a piece of red (very rare apparently) and blue (which was her goal for the day when we starting out) along with plenty of green and clear. The pieces are tiny but still beautiful.
We headed off to lunch and then we hit another spot, Moonstone Beach, which we had never been to before. The beach was beautiful, a little windier and cooler but quiet with clear, blue water and gorgeous rounded stones. Unfortunately, the tide had come in and the best sea glass areas were covered but we found a few pieces and decided that it would certainly be worth another trip!
