We went
to the beach this past weekend (April 29 and 30, 2006), stayed
at a Depoe Bay resort, and crabbed and clammed at Newport.
Digging clams is a new adventure. Our harvest
is limited, but the fun is all the same. While digging,
the light house whistles every minute, and it remindes me of the
steamboats I used to take along the Nine-Dragon
River in my hometown, so far away, and so far back, like in
a dream.

这个周末(二○○六年四月二十九与三十日)，我们去海边度假，住在
Depoe Bay，并去 Newport 捞螃蟹和挖海蛤。
挖海蛤须趁超低水位时，穿长统鞋，带上瘦长的铁锹，到泥沙滩上去找海蛤洞。我们经验不足，但还是略有斩获。邻近石头礁上的灯塔的汽笛声，更让我想到家乡九龙江上的汽船。那可是遥远的过去，遥远的地方，遥远的梦了。
