[QUOTE="TheOLdGuy, post: 116494, member: 878"]Thanks again. I started going to the Cape every year for at least a weekend. Usually open at Memorial Day and Close Labor Day. Quit Hyannis area (took an hour to get from one end of Main St.to the other) and started staying at Blue Dolphin Inn in Chatham. Got to know them so well I could call July 3rd and they promised a room on the 4th. No [U]I couldn't afford it either, [/U]but in my business there were times when I either took off for a few days or they would take me away in a straight jacket. So it was cheaper to take a quick vacation than paying a doctor - and an attorney. When the kids came along we'd take them down for a week or two. Always rented a house in Eastham. Nice central location. Christopher Ryder was the big treat a couple of times a year. Good food. Then move to the Opera House and watch the show. Surprised when we drove by and they were having a tag sale. CLOSING. We stopped in, got some of their pewter under-plates, two Opera House chairs and some miscellaneous decorative pieces. Haven't been there since 05 and miss it.[/QUOTE]
