Sure do miss the fresh clams and digging them up myself. I remember there was a clam shack in the Foley cove area just a shack then sold clams qt, pt, cartons oh boy were they good fried or steamed during summer moths and boarded up come winter.
I have attached some history links here too I have in my files for research sourced:
Roll on, thou deep and dark blue ocean–roll! Ten thousand fleets sweep over thee in vain; Man marks the earth with ruin– his control Stops with the shore. Lord Byron Childe Harold’s Pilgrimage canto IV, st. 179
Congress recognized the extent of this danger to our coastal areas when it passed the Coastal Zone Management (CZM) Act of 1972.

Those look so good! And I’m not even a clam person, really. Although all fresh seafood is pretty good.
