"All I have are my words, armed in my mind, written in pen, stand by stand."
Denise, do you want to fool us? You also have a house by the sea, the ocean. This is not a small thing at all, I'm surprised you don't live there longer. All my life I wanted a house by the sea, I made many plans but no action. Too late I found out that I could have done this, if the desire had been greater and the action premeditated and prepared. I can only rejoice for you!
A very pleasant post, I read it with pleasure and I wondered what the taste of crabs is. I only ate crayfish, more in my childhood when I fished them myself, I really liked them.
I was trying to understand what you meant? "All I have are my words, armed in my mind, written in pen, stand by stand." If you are thinking I was making up a story, I can only say that I use that as a sort of by-line. I end almost every post with it, but, I can see that it may mean that I dreaming up the words?
I do have a house on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. I bought it 11 years ago when the market fell flat on its face and many people were getting rid of property they hadn't used in years. I wasn't living in the area, but, knew I would be coming this way, so I visited and made the purchase. It is only the market was so broken that afforded me the house in this area.
It has never been something I hide, although, it is not something I brag about either. This post is just what I feel like as I make my way there, and it is with regularity that I go as it is a house and has needs. :) Even if it is only to live in. That and my kids love going there.
Crayfish and crabs are both crustaceans, but, crayfish taste more like lobster than crab. Both have sweet meat, in my opinion. It is just crabs are plentiful out there, as is most seafood. They work the water out there.
I hope this answers your question, but, if it didn't, feel free to ask me whatever. Have a great day, Dan! @bluemoon
