Faith's Clam Diggin' Boots
Razor Clam digging is taken very seriously here. So it is very important that little baby Faith have her very own pair of clam diggin' boots for the beach sand. She needs to grow into them...but aren't they too cute?! hehe. By the way... they are pictured here with Great-grandma Vi's world famous clam gun and bag. The good luck bestows all who use them with a limit of luscious razor clams! 


Look! Brett made dinner!

Crab Feed!
The Ilwaco High School Sports Booster Club holds it annual Crab Feed. This important fundraiser is eagerly awaited by the locals and many tourists who make the drive. This year... due to the delayed crab season... it was held a month later than usual. Come early... it is only open as long as the crab holds out. Which can be quite early in the afternoon. 


The local crabbers donate their hard earned catch. Local fish mongers boil 'em up and the many volunteers have held their post for generations. A few years ago.. controversy over hungry patrons taking advantage of the "all you can eat". They have since limited the ticket sales to 2 crabs, cole slaw and garlic bread for $12. Find a seat at a community table and the local athletes, cheerleaders and parents will make sure you have cocktail sauce and napkins.
