Clam Digging Weekend Announced

"They're safe to eat!" Fish & Wildlife have okayed only the second razor clam dig of the season, we're told. "KXRO reports the digging will open Thursday on the afternoon and evening tides on Copalis and Mocrocks and will continue Friday through Sunday at Copalis, Mocrocks, Twin Harbors and Long Beach." If you're over 15, you have to have a shellfish license, and you have to stop after you reach 15 clams. Here are some recipe ideas to spring on people not allergic to shellfish like us.
