Better Than Halloween. . .

Jackson was sick for Halloween so we ended up staying in and watching videos. However, he was feeling much better the next day so we took full advantage.

We went crabbing in Charleston and out to lunch, more crabbing then ice cream on our way home. Jackson loves just to see the 'trabs', so Brian pulled in the traps one after the other just so we could throw them back in.

We were trying to teach Jackson how to kick the small crabs back into the bay when one clamped onto his shoe and wouldn't let go. A couple of months ago this would of had Jackson in hysterics, but not anymore. This seasoned crabber took it like a man.






Such a helpful little crabber! We also had to contend with several seals. One even took our bait right out of two cages, one inside the other. I don't know how they figure it out, but they are much smarter than we are apparently.
