Remember catching these guys and keeping them under our swimming pool? Always try to get the biggest ones for the crab races. Boy they sure could leave a bruise on you arm if they get a chance to pinch you!
And the baby ones. They were so cute when they would get in the house and run as fast as they could along the walls. And they could run fast too. Of course when they got a hold of you they weren't so cute then. Mom use to use a broom to sweep them out of the house.
This is the Beach where we learned to swim. Remember how rocky it was and always had to watch for the sea urchins.
And who could forget the Ferry rides to school every morning? The smell of diesel in the air, the heat on the bus, and the noise was awful. But it was fun also!Don't you just love walking down memory lane?
