I remember the sight of red, green and blue broken glass on a late afternoon walk with my parents along the south arm of the Fraser River. From the 1950’s up until the late 1990’s the river had been a dumping ground of car parts, firewood, pottery and glass. I had to carefully wander over the iron-soaked mud and sand to avoid tripping over semi-submerged cinder blocks and springs to find the coloured glass. I recall as the light began to dim, I could see the tide rise and hear the sound of the glass tinkling like a wind chime in the waves of a tugboat’s wake. These walks brought to me an array of memories about coloured glass. read more
