Dabob Crabbing

Our friend, Cam, hosted a weekend crabbing get-together at his yurt near Hood Canal, Washington. A lot of our good friends from graduate school made it up and we had one hell of a good time! The weekend was filled with crabbing, clamming, surf-boarding from the back of a boat, and lounging on the gorgeous beaches of Washington's Puget Sound.

lots of bounty

I love sea stars

You want me to eat that?!

Exhausted from all the hunting.

Even the dogs had a blast

Eating like PNW kings (and queens)
