So here’s how you do it:
You need a Halloween mask.
And a trick or treat bag.
You look for this special sandy bottom that contains this special treat. It must be a deserted beach and only certain beaches have them. You take the dinghy to shore and jump in about 10 feet of water. Then you dive down with your mask, snorkel and bag to the sandy bottom. When you see a special configuration of two small holes next to each other, you go after them. Don’t go after three holes or one big hole, only 2 small holes. (You never know what’s behind those other unknown holes). Then when those two holes see you overhead, they close up shop and head deeper into the soft sand. You scoop them up with your hand as the sand parts easily and put the little jewel into your trick or treat bag.
There it is, you have chocolates (pronounced: Chock o la tay). Chocolate clams that is. Yummm!
