Taken from Taylor Shellfish Farms, on Chuckanut Drive south of Bellingham, Washington, USA. I think the land you can see is Samish Island in the near distance, and Guemes Island behind it.

All ye get from two lobsters! Can you blame us for not wanting to boil and crack and render our own when we needed two pounds? (That'd be 8 to 10 lobsters.)
I went down to the pier at Gig Harbor today and saw a ton of these little jelly fish guys. They were pretty cool.
I took a class in college called "Fish 310: Biology of Shellfishes". It was kinda funny because the first day of class the prof said something like (and I’m paraphrasing), "there is no true definition for 'shelfish', it's not a scientific term at all, it is actually a culinary term that means a bunch of different things." The class was actually about inveterates, so anything from squid and jelly fish, to arthropods and molluscs, to tiny microorganisms. It was all about the anatomy and physiology of these guys and the taxonomy of them all. Although somewhat interesting, it is really hard for me to wrap my head around the tiny little body parts with strange long names to an organism I can’t even see with my naked eye, and one that is so different from the anatomy of humans or any other invertebrates. It just seemed so strange and distant. I took the class for fun because I thought I might want to minor in aquatic and fisheries sciences. Well, the labs were fun, but the class was horrible. I decided towards the end that I would change the way the grade for this class was by making it a credit or no credit class instead of getting a GPA grade. I didn’t want to drop the class completely and I never gave up, I actually kept going to class and tried to study for the rest of the exams. Well, long story short, I failed the class, got no credit and a “nonsatisifactory” grade, and officially dropped my fisheries minor. So, I could tell you some things about this fish (that's technically not a fish), but it would probably all be wrong because apparently I didn’t learn anything in that class.

Shellfish I ate one morning. The restaurant was scary looking but I didn't get sick, so kudos to them.
