Oh my freakin' word!
Yeah! I remember the CJ!
and the Turnatubs!
who sung the song "Old Cape Cod'? " See the pyramids across the Nile....
My favorite part about the cape is sitting on Rt 3 for hours. Nothing a little break-down lane action doesn't cure. Actually, I don't go down that often, maybe twice last summer, couple of my friends have houses there. Haven't really done anything down there besides go out drinking.
Can't go too far without hearing about my stomping grounds, the hood of Lynn. Plenty of cheap oars up there. The more oars, the better.
Cheap, but you probably get what you pay for.
you probably get something weather you pay for it or not
anywho....
yeah, Rt 3 is da bomb...great scenery too
I used to grab a drink (on vacation once - twice a year), as soon as I got to the cape. It always correlated with VACATION to me even after my parents moved there and while I was still living out of state. I kept grabbing that drink when I walked in the door (well, there was the hell that is rte 3 to over-come). Strange. I don't really do that anymore since I realized what I was doing.
If you go to the cape at like 8 or 9 pm friday night things are usually pretty smooth unless it's a holiday weekend.
Gala: Old Cape Cod was sung by the Andrews Sisters.
CJ
Yeah, CJ was cool.
Gaff rigged sloop that was moored near the boat 'shed' where there was always a turnabout or two in rehab.
What year were you there?
Were you there for the big hurricane when the owner of Viking drown while in his Sunfish? while watching the PBIR?
What a trip........
Where was I the year of the hurricane...? That was Bob, was it not? Knocked down almost all of the cabins on Surf Drive in Falmouth...
I was at Namequoit ... Starting in '69... by Cabin: Halyard, Starboard, Windward, N, skipped a year, Chateau.
I wouldn't turn my nose up at a Cape Cod Mercury, the 18 foot sloop that the camps in the area used to race against each other. Still go back to Nauset at least once a year just so my boys can have the experience of being frozen and pummeled in the surf.
ah yes, frozen, pummeled....don't foget about fighting the undertoe.
Makes the fried clams from the concession stand that much better... ah... nothin' like it in the world.
you're making me hungry SP.....
So where do you go for clams, mikey? Outside of the Cape it has to be Woodman's... but on the Cape?
I'm partial to the Lobster Trap in Bourne.
kadees on the way to nauset on the left or friendly fisherman on 6 in n eastham. closer to me.
woodman's is great.
hnh, mikey, is that outer-cape-bound past the little ice cream place?
Woodman's is cool.
Was kinda disappointed when my cocktail came out in a dixie cup though the first time.
Too much ice, not enough charge.
Oh well.
Always good to digest with darts and pool at the Lobster Trap just behind Woodman's.
Sealpoet, were you a paricipant/member of the Polar Club at Namequoit?
Nauset at 6:30am for body surfing?
Don't know who's bright idea that was.
Did it anyway like an impressionable little pud.
No... I woulda if some sadistic camp councillor had thought of it tho'.
Were you ever present at the telling of Bloody Benny? I heard that one around a campfire more than once... but sadistic camp councellor campfire stories are all pretty much Bloody Benny anyway.
k,u lost me on the 'hnh' thing....
same lot as flemmings donuts just past the intersection to nauset lighthouse heading to ptown on the right.
oh yeah, i forgot cookes in orleans, i think they have one in hyannis also.
