We had a really big rain/wind storm the other day and I learned something new… Crabbers, (Watermen? Fishermen? Guys who go out on boats and drop pods for crab…Crabbers?) whatever you want to call them, are simply crazy! Nuts! Loco! Ya’ll, I watched their boats bounce back and forth, to and fro, side to…

Hooray for Christmas! Hooray for Santa! Hooray for twinkling pine trees, and hot cocoa, and chocolate-candy-fudge filled with nutty-nougat centers topped with marshmallow-creme snowman blobs and twisted peppermint candy-cane crush!
