| Meeko went crabbing yesterday! So my mom and grandparents live on a lagoon in NJ and we are always out back crabbing in the summer. Today was Meeko's first day crabbing and he was all about it. He kept running over to see what we were doing and then would run up to the deck and lay down for a break. As soon as he saw my Grandma or I go to a new line, he's jump back down to check it out. He was so cute out there. I'm not a fan of crabbing but, I helped my Gram today. I love picking the meat out tho. Everyone else in my family hates it because they have so many little compartments to pick thro but, it's relaxing to me. After I picked the meat, my Grandma made some crab cake and they were delicious. Just thought I'd share some pictures of today and our usual summer day here on the Jersey Shore. Meeko is loving being in NJ this summer. He always has something to check out. He passes rite out at night tho 1- Meeko helping check the lines 2- Meek helping my Grandma 3- They got that big one lol 4- And then they needed a break

| 5- The jellyfish are so bad this year. Usually my younger brother and cousins will jump in a few times but, we have some huge jellies this year. They sting too. 6- Meeko came down to help me pull a line 7- we caught a dozen keepers 8- my Grandma's new butt buddy. He just loves following her around the yard

| 9- my grandma cleans the crabs before she cooks them. She pulls over their top shell and hoses out all their guts and waste so it doesn't dirty up the water and get into the meat 10- that's all the junk that she cleans off 11- Meeko and my mom's dog, Chip, hanging out 12- the crabs in the pot cooking

| Thanks so much for the pictures! It brought back such nice memories of when I was a child on Long Island!!! I just LOVED fishing and crabbing! I didn't eat the crabs myself...still don't...but I gave them away to happy recipients!

| I'm glad everyone enjoyed the pictures and they brought back good memories. He passed rite out last night and I had to wake him this morning. lol Meeko is back out there today. Hope everyone has a good day!! I gotta go find him and make sure he's not barking at the basket of crabs again Oh he scared me yesterday, he peeked in to see what was making so much noise. One almost nipped his noise. Grizzley Bear glad you like the cut. It's a little short for me but, he's always outside and it's so hot. And, when he goes swimming it use to take forever for him to dry. It's much easier now tho.
