Lobster Trap Building Blocks

Lobster traps are stacked in piles large and small all over town and remind me of building blocks.  Children’s building blocks come in all shapes and sizes; the same is not true of lobster traps.  They are certainly not toys, but rather much more like the blocks used to build foundations.  These traps are the foundation of livelihoods, families and the culture of the area.  They are beautiful.
