3rd Annual Winter Watermen's Festival

Virginia residents!  This year The Saxis Island Museum has been added !  Don't miss the featured presentation (time listed below)

And in case you didn't know ( CL  says he knew) The Saxis Island Museum is on FACEBOOK.  Please check there for the most recent photos from Hurricane Sandy.





Also...
The Saxis Island Museum has a wonderful website -   http://saxisislandmuseum.org/index.html devoted to the islands' history of people and life on the water and land.  Please take time to see the many photos made available.

Check the Educational Links and read how to build a crab pot......I'm thinking that if you're going to build just one  crab pot it might be better to just use a piece of string and chicken back! 

And please don't miss reading the story written by Patrick Hendrickson about the Harvey A. Drewer Oyster Boat.
http://highcamera.com/drewer-article.php  If you are familiar with Saxis you have seen the oyster boat. Patrick even mentions Martha Jane's Kitchen.



 (Patrick is the one responsible for wooing so many of us with his aerial photos of the ocean and the bay recently). 
Wonderful website and look forward to seeing more of it in the future.  Good luck on your new venture with the museum.
