Gotta go either way. Keep your fingers crossed for good weather on this end of the journey. Please include the recipe. Right here is a good place, like Joe.<BR/><BR/>LIMERS: I thought about including that in the post, but it was getting sort of long. That's the next one.<BR/><BR/>BLUE TSG, etc.: So glad to see that SOMEONE got the wing thing enough to say something about it. lol Thank you. We call it New England clam chowder here, too. Mr. Gawpo, Sr is the keeper of that recipe. These clams are not wasted in smotherage of other juices, however. They are fried in 1/2 butter and 1/2 corn oil after a dip in flour, egg and bread crumbs with liberal amounts of romano cheese.<BR/><BR/>BAZZER: A great complement, coming from the master himself! Yes, I do give good Gawpo wherever I go.<BR/><BR/>BWOOKIE: Then my work is done here as well! Bullseye. Get your butt back here! You don't just miss THE beach; you miss THIS beach!<BR/><BR/>Oh, CLAIRE: Not a problem with pollutants. But we did have nearly three whole years of closure due to naturally occurring demoic acid levels. They are worth the work.<BR/><BR/>NANER-GEE: You are so ON! See you there. I mean here.

Clamming actually DOES include the thrill of the hunt.<BR/>As teenagers we used to go and watch my freind's mom and her friends dig clams, always a good show.<BR/>They would set up a fire on the beach and have a BBQ so we could all eat our fill then bring home the limit. We would be soooo full on those days because in addition to clams they would also be running crab pots with a boat. Mmmmmm<BR/>Good stuff<BR/>Anyway, love the pics, and the video.Logophilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05791617221187190709noreply@blogger.com
