Vancouver Island - hometown Sidney, British Columbia, Canada

A sewer cover from outside my childhood home on Amelia Avenue, Sidney British Columbia, Canada a compass marker on Beacon Avenue pointing to Sidney Wharf and ‘China Beach’, and the treasures of ‘China Beach’ herself. These treasures are beach glass- literally transformed garbage. A demonstration of the transformation of cr@p into treasure through a purification process - this time by the ocean - perhaps overseeen by Cloacina. The entire Vancouver Island coastline is beautiful - and this beach held so much wonder and awe for me as a child.
