Commercial Waterman and Crab Pots — Donna Hopkins

*Picking Crabs at Parker’s Crab Shore, 1960’s*

My grandparents, parents and aunts and uncles owned and operated a seafood restaurant up until 1998. They spent a lot of time sitting around a stainless steel table picking crab meat, telling stories, and trying to scrape out a decent living so their kids could have a better life. I wouldn’t have this beautiful life without their hard work.
