Navigating the hilly terrain of motherhood

Last weekend we went on one of our favorite family walks — Wolfe's Neck State Park — but this time we encountered something entirely new. We came across two native Mainers out clamming, just for fun, digging clams for their dinner. The girls were fascinated, and lucky for us, those two guys were more than happy to pass along some wisdom.

How do you prepare the clams? Cook them up in some buttah, get yourself an english muffin, some chips, a soda, and slice of pie. 

Do you two always go clamming together? A-yuh. We go together like root beer and ice cubes. Some guys go to bars to meet women, but we go clammin'.

We also learned that as residents of Maine, we're allowed to to dig for clams at any state park. How cool is that? I love living in Maine.
