Clamming in Alaska

Yesterday Diamonds in the Rough went clamming!  It was cold and wet, but hey, what's not to like about playing in the mud?  Apparently there's an art to chasing clams down. 
Step 1.) Dig fast.
Step 2.) Throw yourself in the wet sand and start digging madly until you feel a clam shell. 
Step 3.) Pull it up and throw it on the sand beside you in one smooth, suave motion so that everyone knows you caught one.  OK, the last part not so much. :)

All in all, we had an awesome time.  Afterwards, I learned how to clean clams.  And after cleaning about a hundred and fifty clams, I will never forget how it's done.  Never. :)
