Rest in peace, Justice Sandra Day O'Connor. ⚖️ Remembering her visit to Charleston, where she savored local flavor with some good ol' shrimp and grits made with wild-caught shrimp from the Marina Variety Store. 🦐🌾 A true champion of equality & justice, she'll be deeply missed.

Storm's gone, but the hustle ain't! Our shrimpers weathered the blast and are back on the water, bringing the taste of the holidays home. Dock might be empty, but the coolers are full! #ShrimpingStrong #HolidaySeafood #MerryChristmasFromTheSea

all this talk of Department of Government Efficiency maybe there’s a way to invest in the modernization of of US commercial fishing vessels powered by Elon Musk ‘s Tesla trawlers? 🤔 🚀 But our hope is that Howard Lutnick & NOAA will now be serious about issues facing our domestic shrimpers & fishermen 🇺🇸
