Clam digging at Ninilchik June 8

I know I am so late in posting these photos. I just wanted to show you all how many people there were digging clams on the extreme low tide--I took a photo looking north and the other looking south. We did this when our son and family were here from Fairbanks. I fell in the mud butt first--thank goodness no one took my picture! We had to walk considerably far for the children but they were good. Reily collected chunks of coal for her grandfather's outside fire pit for which he was very grateful. Sasha and I carried bags of coal and a bucket full of clams plus she had the baby inside her coat. We all had a snack when we got back to the car.
