Who would have thought that a dumping ground would become a thing of beauty? At California’s Glass Beach in MacKerricher State Park, that’s exactly what happened. In the early 1900s, residents from the Fort Bragg area used the beach as a landfill. After various cleanup programs and some time , the pounding waves broke down the glass pieces into small, smooth coloured pieces that often become jewelry quality.
