It’s illegal to “harvest” over 100 clams, per person, per day in New Brunswick.

Good God! She was crossing the tidal ponds and didn’t she get her feet, both of ’em!, stuck knee-deep in the shallows!! OMG!! I couldn’t help it. I started to laugh. Then she started to laugh and we both just about pee’d ourselves laughing.
Good Jesus, if the cancer couldn’t have killed her, it looked likely that I might!
Although I have been endeavouring to win the award for “World’s Worst Nephew”, it seems as though I may have been unfairly snubbed again this year. I mean…wouldn’t you agree I should at least get a nod for Effort?
Well, she’s about 77 I suppose and still kickin’. She’s just down the road and I’d love for you to meet her. Maybe she’ll offer to take you clam-digging.
