As much as I'd love to, I will have to pass.

 Oh man those look good! The oysters have been really good the last few weeks.  I see you bought the correct beer to go with those as well....

On the walk back to the Condo hit another bar but only had room for 1/2 dozen more.
These were much better the the first 4 dozen.


PS for health safety I only eat steamed so these were steamed on the half shell.

Ya I made it to 73 while riding motor cycles, racing sport cars and as a test pilot in the US Army and I decided not to push my luck anymore.
No raw oyster or any raw seafood for me.

In my opinion Apalach oysters are the best there is. The bay was closed the last time were down there and we could not get them. Not sure what part of Florida you are in but if you are ever in Apalachicola try to eat at Boss Oyster, they have their own boats and you can get some that are just off the boat. two years ago we were staying on St George Island and we rode over to Carabelle and found an oyster boat that just came in and he took a shovel and scooped them up and rinsed them off and filled up a big tow sack full. Took them back, washed them some more and iced them down. That was some good eating.

Ken we are on Open Sands beach just west of PC and I agree unanimously for Boss Oyster in Apalachicola.
We use to stay in Bryant House Bed & Breakfast (close now) in Apalachicola once or twice a year.
Great bar and unlike most B&B's this one was a party place.
Oysters at Boss Oyster by the water was a short walk so that was hit each day. 
Maybe we will swing by that way on the way back to Savannah.

Ya know other than the aches and pains, being old is not that bad.

Oh man those look so good. I love oysters.

Three food groups I look for when traveling and not necessary in that order.
BBQ
Oysters
Fine Dining.

If we hadn't just returned from two weeks in New Orleans I'd probably be sticking pins in your voodoo doll while drooling over the photo.

... I made it to 73 ... decided not to push my luck anymore... No raw oyster or any raw seafood for me.

I just figure I'm already so far past my expiration date (luck apparently took the place of smart in my case) that it doesn't really matter any more (and it would be really tough living in Hawaii without eating raw fish).

[Savannahsmoker]

Ya got me.  I meant no raw shellfish,
I can eat the heck out of sashimi and sushi but I mostly sashimi.
Of course this is not going to be the Hawaiian quality,
Sorry
