Digging for Razor Clams


Itty Bitty Crab


Little steamer clam

Josh was such a trooper...Will wasn't sure what to make of it

I love this picture with William. This place is so amazingly beautiful!


Serious Business!

Jared trying to dig for a clam with Gabe on his back. Gabe was bouncing around nearly head butting Jared over and over again.

Josh tried, but it is really hard to do

Found a hole

This is what you are looking for

Jared's back is a little sore today

So GROSS!

That is the Razor's Neck!!

For Memorial Day we headed for beach in search if the Razor Clam! It was a perfectly low tide which is perfect for clamming! I couldn't believe how many people were there, the beach was lined with people as far as you could see. So I thought that it would be an icky and miserable expierence, but it was just the opposite! We had so much fun! Rhonda (Jared's mother) and I packed babies and looked for their holes, Jared and Garth dug them out (which is not easy and they are super fast) and William and Josh collected them and put them in the buckets. We not only saw razor clam, but we also found lots of hermit crabs, baby crabs, steamer clams and even a blood starfish!!!
