 Having made at least two people cry with yesterday's post, let's switch gears tonight. A friend of mine purchased a late 18th century farmhouse on the Eastern Shore of Virginia shortly after he graduated from College. For more weekends than I can count, he dragged one or more of us across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel to help him with his restoration/renovation project. The house was unlivable but he had completed the 'Doctor's Office' (as we called the one surviving outbuilding) so we stayed there for our visits. The house was on the fringes of extensive salt marshes where we would go to collect crabs, clams, and oysters for our meal. On this day we had been particularly lucky with the clam take and here my friend Bernie was preparing a rather sumptuous clam stew for our dinner -- yes, that is a pile of clams in the foreground.
