Monica and I stole away for a 2-night escape to beautiful Grand Manan Island… in search of lobster, sea glass and some quality together time. We found all that… and had our fill.

Wow! That’s a lot of sea glass! There’s almost none at our beach now.
It must be a popular pastime. We saw several other people doing the same.
I have many friends on Grand Manan, and have played at several churches on the island. It’s a very cool place.
