Firsts at the Beach: Periwinkles and Raw Oysters

This past week, we made our annual trek to Chincoteague Island. As always, it's been a blast. Helen dove right into eating a raw oyster that Captain Barry plucked from the ocean and followed it up a few nights later with several periwinkles.

Here is Helen holding a bucket of the periwinkles (snails) that she helped pluck from a nearby dock.
