Clamming

Our good friends JoEllen and Jeremy took us clamming a few weekends ago.  We headed out to Willapa Bay early in the morning and slogged around in the exposed bay floor.  It took some time to figure out the best technique to find the clams, but once we did, we all caught our limit.  We went home, steamed our clams in butter, white wine, and garlic and ate until we couldn't eat any more.

Our new car...

A couple of weekends ago, we traded in our old car for a brand new 2012 Subaru Forester.  It strikes a balance between functionality and adventure.  We love all the features that make it ideal for any outdoor excursion and the luxuries that make city driving enjoyable.  It's our perfect car.
