I tell you!  My daughter and her friends and I had a blast at the Oyster Festival last weekend. The misty autumn day was just right for oysters and Oyster Brewed Beer, I kid you not! I’ve got loads of pictures up on facebook…or check out my flickr page. I’ll add some to a gallery here just as soon as I can figure out how to make them public.
