clamming at Pacific Beach

This is what we were looking for, a depressed (but not suicidal) hole.
Then we (those who were strong enough - namely not Teresa) used the 'gun' to tube down around the clam.

Pull the gun up and voila (or not so voila) there is a clam.
Then you wash it off in the water.When you don't smash it with the gun, you are happy. And you put it in the bucket with the other dying (or dead, smashed) clams.There are holes like this all over the ground.And birds flying about looking for the discards.

Getting Rebecca to laugh!

Rebecca was ditched, the woes of being latched into the stroller.
