Ltppowell: I have enjoyed countless fresh "Oyster meals" on the beaches of Hood's Canal in Washington state!
I am a fried oyster and barbecued Oyster connoisseur, of great repute and long standing.
Just thinking about these delicacies makes my mouth water.
The VarmintWife and I owned a vacation condo on Hood's Canal for many years. Our beach was crammed with perfect Oysters and Dungeness Crabs were plentiful just off shore.
My "perfect meal" is a fresh caught Dungeness Crab Louie followed by well done freshly caught barbecued Oysters, and the aforementioned icey cold American bottled beer (M.G.D.!)!
You only live once - might as well get the most out of the journey.
Hold into the wind
