You probably don’t remember me but I’ve followed your writing since back in the day when the Register did the best investigative journalism on the Cape. I love your writing, which addressed salient issues in a style that was like storytelling…..personal, factual, witty and always relevant.
I was close friends with Barry and Dana and actually lived with Dana in the Cotuit mansion (inhabited by the ghost of its former resident who lost a child) when Dare School, which I started with a group of 6 or 7 others, burned down. I’ve met you at gatherings but you wouldn’t necessarily remember me bc I don’t think we had any one on one discussions…….just music, dancing and a lot of ‘ragtime’ talk.
But I follow your writing whenever I bump into it. Bruce told me about your blog and I’d love to join. Please advise re how to get on board. Thanks:) Cathy (Cate) Dooley
Maybe 10 or so years back my husband and I decided to cross the bridge to finally visit the Kennedy Library. It was a lovely, warm spring day which we timed to coincide with the least amount of traffic in both directions.
The Kennedy Library was fantastic, but for me the best part of the day was random. We happened to be there on new citizen induction day where there was a fitting ceremony we witnessed. What moved me most was the pride, honor, and relief these folks looked like they felt, while their beaming families watched . It was a privilege to see, one I’m very grateful for. And I also like knowing that our federal / state officials made it properly special for them as they achieved their dream that day.
It will be a wonderful and memorable day for your family too.
I love this. And not to bury the herring, I mean lead, but CONGRATULATIONS TO YOUR TWO GODDESS DAUGHTERS!!!!!!! SO EXCITING!!!! Waiting for their offerings of summer seminars in Civics and Uncivilization at the Cape, bien sûr!!! 😎🙏🏽🖖🏽🎭
