Plymouth Lobster Crawl Scheduled For November

We headed for Plymouth to warm up for November's Lobster Crawl...

The Lobster Crawl visits most of the 29 lobsters on the Plymouth Lobster Trail.

Most of the lobbies are in the waterfront section of downtown Plymouth, some are on Main Street and one is way the hell down off Exit 3.

The crutch doesn't seem to fit the legs, but that's how ish goes down on the Lobster Crawl, player...

This one, which is down by Plymouth Rock, was just returned after a miscreant borrowed it for a few weeks.

Let's see when I run out of caption material and start pasting directly from the Plymouth Lobster Crawl website.

When this doctor gets ready for that COUGH part of the exam, run from the room.

The Lobster Crawl doesn't touch all of the lobsters, just the ones located near pubs and taverns.

"Natty Dread Rides Again..."

This is the Redbrook lobster, located way off of the Crawl Trail. He's down in the woods between Plymouth and Wareham, in the new housing development.

I don't know how Brockton (check his left claw) got into this, but it gives me an excuse to post this article in the 50,000 member Brockton Hub group.

I can't tell you how much time I spent sitting here trying to think of lobster takes on the names of famous guitarists. If he were outside the bookstore, we could call him Jimmy Page. If he were near the lumber yard, he could be Ron Wood. He's neither.

A few cones sure did screw up my lobster shot.

Sorry, Charlie...

Somebody borrowed Miss Clawmerce before Cranberry County showed up...

Harboring: Plymouth

We're doing a tour of the harbors in our reading area, and why not lead off with America's home harbor, Plymouth?


Local toughs loiter around the Plymouth waterfront, but they rarely sit on one spot.



Tuna on the roof, you say? Just happen to have one right here...




Nautical themes rule the day, but hot cars will never be bypassed by our photographers.



You take the little boat out to the big boat...



Facing Saquish/Gurnet

The ladder looks more utilitarian with a boat under it, but it's still April.



Our harbor exploration series will be a bit sparse on the oats-bay until the weather warms up.



A real man just drops his boat in the water with a crane thingy, like that man (him) does in 2 minutes... and like this man (me) doesn't know how to do.



We'll be exploring the Plymouth Lobster Trail soon enough, but a bunch of them are around Plymouth Harbor.



In case you haven't noticed, our photographers love clusters of dinghy skiff type boats.



Facing towards Manomet... notice that we have the rotten luck to tour Plymouth Harbor when the Mayflower II is away.



The life preserver from the Easterly led off the article, so we may as well show the whole boat.



Buoy oh buoy do we love primary colors!



Before setting out to sea, a good fisherman checks his radar, his sonar and his faux tuna dolphin wire structure.


Clever drinkers will run up a bar tab on Tails Of The Sea, then skip out on it by jumping over onto the Captain John & Son IV.



There's "waterfront dining," and then there's "fishing boat on the roof waterfront dining." 



The mason was instructed to lay the bricks towards the N/NW.



That's a whale on my roof and  I'm happy to see you.



Your town has a flock of birds... Plymouth has a dock of birds.


I put in the fourth fireplace just in case chicks aren't impressed with three.


Notice that most boats have girl names, i.e. "Andrea Gayle" or "Mary Celeste." Boats look stupid with boy names. No one names their boat "Todd." That has nothing to do with this picture, but that's how the Captioning game works at times, player.



Facing Duxbury...


This includes, historically, 70000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 fish... and, in my case, one doomed jet-ski.



Mamma Mia's will run out and drop pizzas down from the seawall to fishermen, but only for locals. The rest of you have to come up ashore.



Facing Long Beach.... LBC!!



Every good harbor has a sea dog around somewhere, keeping an eye on things.



Plymouth Harbor, we thank you!



Front Door vs Back Door With Waterfront Houses

We are here today to discuss matters of great importance. Specifically... on a beach house or even a lake house, is the front door of...
