Dr. Itch




Dr. Itch is an elderly gentleman who comes to our dock to crab every other morning. Since we have been coming here every summer for the past 3 years, Dr. Itch really enjoys seeing "the little people". Dr. Itch is over 80 and used to be a dermatologist - his license plate says Dr. Itch, so that is what we call him. 

Every morning my children climb out of bed and "help" Dr. Itch with the crab traps. They chat his ear off (I don't think he can hear them too well!) and they genuinely enjoy his visits. I love to watch them scamper after him and yesterday on the porch was this treat....

Crab Legs! The crew devoured them and can't wait for the next bunch! I love to see Dr. Itch and the way my children love to see him makes my heart smile.
