One thing I'm hoping to help Frank with is the re-creation of the traditional nets used that he and others are working on. My father and uncle are looking into whether any of the family's gear was kept, and what they remember from memory. If anyone's family has history in China Camp and/or Hunter's Point, I'd love to talk with you sometime.

Nice shot. Did you position the net like that, or was it part of a display?

I think Frank had left the net out to dry this way. It's one of the replicas they are working on of the traditional nets used to catch shrimp (and everything else). The net looks like it had been in the water but fairly new, and not 'tanned' with traditional methods. I'm going to try meeting him again this Saturday.
