CLIMBING
LOBSTERS

The true-ish origin · Cape Cod

Before it was a brand,
it was a family myth.

We were driving the FJ80 along Nauset Beach when the kids spotted small, blue, birdhouse-like boxes standing quietly in the marsh.

They asked what lived inside. The answer arrived before reason could catch it:

“Those are for the
climbing lobsters.”

For a day or two, it was entirely true. We decided that was worth keeping alive.
