While at the beach we steamed crabs.  You have to be careful you don't get pinched (2001).  I'm not sure who's arm this is but I think it's mom's.

After the crabs were stemmed we enjoyed sitting outside on the porch and digging in (literally).  We had three dozen crabs between six of us (P-E-Y's taking the picture).  P-E-Y and Linda didn't care for the crabs much but the rest of us made up for this.  Crabs are good with beer (2001). In the picture is Dale, Linda, PEY, Mom, and Thomas (thanks mom and Thomas for getting the crabs!)

The Elder family visited us the last few days of our stay at the beach.  Here is Mary Elder with her blanket  that she named "Noah" (2001) and her bear (I forgot his name, sorry Mary). Linda is facing the camera, Sarah is sitting beside her and Ann (Sarah's mom) is facing Linda.

Steve cooked everyone pancakes for breakfast.  Here is Steve, Ann, Sarah, and Linda.  The cottage is so close to the ocean that there wasn't even any beach to lay on between the cottage's bulkhead and the ocean.  We had to go down the beach a ways.
