This is a fictional short story about a lobsterman working out of Booth Bay Harbor, along the southeast coast of Maine. He is recently widowed, rather old to be doing the strenuous work needed to make a living from the sea, and has trouble making payments on his lobster boat which is his sole means of support. He has little use for people who don't pull their own weight and has few but very likable friends. And understandably, they are about as well off as he is. His loyalty to his friends is his most enduring quality. But it takes a stranger in town to fully understand and express this. She is a visitor to Maine, in town for a summer vacation. And yet, it is her perspective that provides the clearest understanding of his true nature.
