It was a warm October day on the Texas Coast - there were no crabs to be found on the Island of Port Aransas, so we took the ferry and went across the Channel Bridge with our friends, Bill and Carol Cook. Michael saw a sign that said "Fresh Crabs" so we turned down that road toward the waterfront . . .
