December at the beach

We took advantage of a few hours of sunshine on Tuesday and walked on the beach at Hosah Park in Zion.










I hit the beach glass jackpot!

Years ago there were houses along the lakefront.  When lake levels rose in the mid-1970's they were condemned and now the whole lakefront is parkland. Could this be a relic from one of those houses?

(This design is also a quilt block called Bright Hopes.)
