Those lobsters look awesome. You should gorge on them while you can.
I had fresh blue crabs in Maryland once and they were excellent as well. They were better than the seafood that we can get around here.

Steak is better than Lobster......for 3 days out of four. Still.....a good rib-eye and a Lobster tail is hard to beat. Hot butter and Lobster......MMMMMMMMMMM. . Oh I’m a steak lover for sure. I’d still put it above lobster but not by much. The best bite has been the little legs. Suck the juices out like thru a straw. Little bit of sweet meat in there too. Half the time I don’t even dip it in the butter. The juice running out is better.

I want to try a pound of steamers this week yet too. Had the fried whole belly clams. They were good. Steamers in melted butter look good too.

You should try a blackened cod steak, they are wonderful. Lobster, it's good but I can eat 3 of them. We were in Maine years ago, the seafood is great.

Had fresh Dungeness crab steamed just off the boat in Oregon... one of the best things I've ever eaten. Had a fried softshell crab sandwich in Virginia last summer... didn't care for it much at all.

The meat/juice sucked out of the tiny legs was the best part of the whole lobster. I tried a little bit of the tomalley as well (the green goop in the shell). That was really good. When I eat lobster we usually cook them ourselves because I eat the whole thing. Suck the leg meat out, split the meat out of the ribs and leg knuckles and eat the red and green stuff. I skip any stuff inside that’s black. Most people that eat them at a restaurant just eat the claws and tail. They miss out on a lot of meat. Id eat whole belly clams all day long though. Steamed mussels are less work than steamers. A little cheaper and just as good. BF, the past couple mornings must’ve been perfect weather up there. You’re about 8 hour drive from me. Rockland is a nice area if you can get to it.

BF, You been hiking in Acadia? You bet. Been putting on 6-7 miles a day according to my phone. Cadillac Mountain was the best view by far. Ocean path was picturesque. Going to Beech Mountain tomorrow. Been to Rocky Mountain National Park last two years. This doesn’t compare but it has its highlights. Hardly a spec of wildlife here. Did see a couple seals yesterday in Pretty Marsh Harbor. Otherwise a couple deer and turkeys.
