So as I said I did the research and found messages sent by the ocean blue.
One they believed was a man trapped on an island trying to be rescued. Yep that's right, no love story there, just someone desperately trying to get home. I never did find out if he was ever rescued??? I found research that goes back as far as 310 BC by a Greek philosopher. Another in England by Elizabeth I, whom she appointed someone the official 'Uncorker of Ocean Bottles' and made it an offense to open the bottles.
Many passengers and sailors for centuries have been recorded having sent messages in bottles. Benjamen Franklin was among the ones who sent messages threw the ocean for research purposes of course. Many children have done it and received pin pals. But I've yet to find the 'True Love' message. So in my heart somewhere there is a love letter sent by the ocean blue and someday someone will find it, if not already. It would be so cool to find one of my own while taking a stroll with my husband on the beach. That would be nice.
