| A safe (?) place to walk on broken glass. |
Fort Bragg, CA
On a picture-perfect day, you can see for miles. Endless stretches of beach, salty waves crashing into the rocky shoreline, and butts up in the air belonging to those collecting bits of glass, polished by the sea, all while giving beach rules against such behavior the collective middle finger.
Decades ago, the area surrounding Glass Beach was a dumping ground. Refuse was thrown right into the ocean, including vehicles! By the mid-60s, the activity was banned. Today, glass still washes ashore, shiny from years of erosion, among occasional rusty spark plugs and newer gum wrappers from today's nefarious youth.
Be sure not to go barefoot! You'd think that would be obvious, right?
