Charleston

Living across the street from the sea means that my yard is pretty sandy. I noticed a couple of holes and asked a friend what manner of critter lived there. He said that they were crab holes and recommended that I try to see them after dark. I took my flashlight out and behold! It was a whole crab colony!

I have named this Charleston

One of Charleston's residents

I often go out in the evening to visit the residents of Charleston as they sit on their front porches. Unfortunately, they do not feel the same affection for me as I do for them. I walked into the alley one evening and a crab was walking sideways facing me. I said "Well, hello friend!" He slowly turned around and continued on his way with his back to me. Sigh. Oh well.
