Anyone heading to Urbanna for the kickoff of the Oyster Festival today? Some friends and I decided to take off today and go:

1. Tweezer: "We ridin' or are we talkin' today? Let's go, I'm feelin' snazzy."
2. Tom's sweet 20 yr.-old Sporty, Tweezer's ******, my Ultra. 3. Tom: "You oughta ditch that ****** for an Ultra like Chris." Tweezer: "How'd that '88 Sportster treat you on the ride down?" 4. This must be the place. 5. Mmmmm . . . fresh fried clams w/just a little hot & sweet sauce. 6. Tallest building in Urbanna.

1. '35 MGD Chevy
2. Tweezer is handling the impending divorce well. 3. Tom's purrrty Sportster. 4. Soon as I'm back home, one of the beagles confronts me: "Where are my oysters, dad? It's alright, I've already been working a sympathy angle with mom this evening." Great day w/good friends, crisp & clear autumn weather, and good luck.

YUP! Speckles down at Rudy Inlet, put in over at Owls Creek. We caught a few but I think that front shut 'em down. They were catchin 'em by the dozens early in the week.... I'll be back out there tomorrow or Wednesday... |

Talked to several folks who said the oyster harvest this year is strong, and the quality of what we're enjoying seems in line with that - man they're big and tasty this year!
