Our Yearly Visit, Wed 3 Aug 2005
My family and myself have been traveling to cape cod for 21 years for the last 17 years its the cenh it ter the fun. we talk all year about the beach, we talk about it and dream, we have talked all the way there yearly and thought great thoughts all the way home. years ago my youngest took a baggie of sand home with her and slept with it under her pillow for about 6 months... said it was her dream get away. and as for myself I agree! Thank you so much for the great place, we stay at father-in-laws, east wareham mass, and drive daily to get there for three hours everyday. Kevin J Glenn
