Father's Day at Union River Lobster Pot

The restaurants are beginning to open for the summer season. The Union River Lobster Pot in Ellsworth was recommended by the locals for great fresh caught lobster. We decided to go there for Father's Day.  They open at 5 pm, but when we arrived 15 minutes early, there was already a line. It was a beautiful day so we opted to eat outside at the picnic table with a view of the Union River. 
Live lobsters were orderable in 1/4 pound increments from 1 pound to 2-1/2 pounds.
A plate of steamer clams for an appetizer.
This 2-1/4 pound lobster took an hour to eat.  To enjoy this meal, you have to have time and patience. Virginia had a nice steak.

Have you had a needham yet? It's the best candy every invented.

Finally found Needhams in New Hamshire. Does taste like Mounds candy bar. Hard to believe it is mashed potato.
