These have to be the most wonderous things I saw on our trip south on highway 101. We had sped through Rockaway Beach (really fast because Sweetie was likely terrified I would want to stop and there were so many places I would just have to visit) but I caught a glimpse of them out of the corner of my eye. What WAS that ???
Well on the way home, sweetie wasn't so lucky was he.
STOP THE CAR I yelled when I realized where we were. I wasn't going to miss this again!!! And there in front of us hanging everywhere were the most amazing glass balls, crystal clear, sparkling in the sun. I had no idea what they were made of ~ I just knew I wanted one.
As I salivated over all of them ( I couldn't take them all home could I?) Cat, the wife of the artist who created them told me the story of how they came to be. I will leave it up to you to find out....
What I can't believe is I didn't take ONE picture of them en mass. This photo is from their web site. I was so gobsmacked as they say in England it didn't occur to me until we were quite a ways down the road.
My very own Oregon Du Drop will be hanging from it's turquoise ribbon where I can see it every day. And smile.
