Today is the first day of crab season here in Washington. Dh had to get up at 5:30 in order to get the boat launched and the crab pots in by 7 AM. I got to stay home and sleep in for a bit, or at least that is what DH told me.
He called at 9 AM to make sure I was up and getting ready to come down to meet him. We had a pretty good day. Not as warm as last week, but nice. We are only allowed to keep 5 male crab per license. The crab must be at least 6 1/2 inches across the back of their shell. So although we had a lot of Dungeness crabs in our pots, we only had 6 keeps, so one went back into Puget Sound to wait another day.
But we are having Dungeness crab tonight for dinner. I also got an nice lunch out of the day. DH took me over to Coupeville for a hamburger on the pier. It was nice. So all in all, I had a great day.

My DH still tells the story of my being bitten by the mosquitoes.
