Bugs 'n clams

Posted on July 11, 2008 by dr.hypercube

Great outing last night – off with my friend E to do battle with Homarus americanus (often referred to as bugs in these parts) and steamers (softshelled clams). Dee-lish! While waiting for E, I spotted a pirate and 2 wenches exiting the NH Liquor Store – some folks shilling for a rum brand – funny and odd. After dinner E went swimmin’ – too cold for your humble correspondent.

Goodbye, Boone. Whenever his name is mentioned, we’ll always remember, “That Boone, he was a good ol’ dog.”

He was a good companion in the grouse woods and around town; a wonderful, happy, stubborn, birdy, goofy shorthair. He leaves an empty spot by the wood stove and in my heart.
