However, it was a crime when the Moors was closed. Like you we went for our traditional summer visit and it was closed. For condos no less. We had eaten there and enjoyed their amazing food for twenty five years. They had a dish, scallops In croute, that I still think about. Several years later we found out that Lenny, their piano man had passed away and we were sorry to hear this. We have seen places come and go in Ptown, but losing the Moors was the toughest loss...Chuck Stephenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08337452459603569478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34240686.post-84808364943500845142016-01-28T17:41:55.842-05:002016-01-28T17:41:55.842-05:00Elizabeth, I just saw your comment here - a few ye...Elizabeth, I just saw your comment here - a few years after the fact!

We stopped here on the way up but it was too late to go hear the fado music so we made sure we'd have time on the way back.<BR/><BR/>Glad you all enjoyed the descriptions of Cape Cod.

I agree, the...Thanks so much for all the comments. I agree, the homogenization of America - and the world - is very sad. So far "our" part of the Cape has escaped the chain store phenomenon for the most part. The hardware store in Orleans is still Snow's - not Home Depot. And there are no McDonalds in sight. But of course, if you go down near Hyannis and that area, it's all there.<BR/><BR/>One of the things that has kept the Lower Cape (as the part sticking out into the ocean is known around these parts) from being completely ruined is the National Seashore. Back in the early 60's President Kennedy got a whole lot of the oceanfront property from about Orleans on down to Provincetown designated a national park. No new development. No condos on the ocean. The only things allowed to be there are those cottages that were grandfathered in. So this helps a lot. I know what it could look like...I'm from New Jersey and many parts of our Jersey shore are nothing but cottages, condos, amusement parks, and boardwalks.Mauigirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15529827915262851910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34240686.post-21443671846042813812007-09-18T11:59:00.000-04:002007-09-18T11:59:00.000-04:00The first time I ever saw the ocean was when I wen...The first time I ever saw the ocean was when I went on an anniversary trip which started in Boston and then we rented a car and stayed at various Bed and Breakfast's up the coast. We stayed at one in Cape Cod that happened to be on Main Street and a short walk to the beach. It just so happened to be right in front of the bus stop that brought tourists to the pier to take the ferry, however. Unfortunately for us, the bus ran almost all night....every hour on the hour. When it came to it's complete stop at the sign in front of our Bed and Breakfast (and our room was facing the front of the building), it revved up it's motor and spewed its fumes for all of us to take in. When going down to breakfast with the rest of the occupants, we all looked like we were ready to drop...no one slept that night! Other than that, it was a great place and we still had a blast.<BR/><BR/>I didn't like swimming in the salty ocean, though.

Even though I've never been to Cape Cod, I can so relate to the nostalgia of going places (particularly with my children) where I went as a child and finding them changed. Changed or not, however, time for new memories to be formed.<BR/><BR/>There's one diorama in the Denver Museum of Nature & Science where polar bears are gathered around their dinner--a ribbon seal dead on the ice. The light on the horizon is orange and dim, probably the middle of a winter day. That scene was my favorite. I took my daughter there and she gave it the big 'ho hum,' opting instead to be enthralled at each visit, with the pack of wolves sculpture outside. Didn't even exist when I was young. Same enchantment, different visual. <BR/><BR/>Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose indeed!!denverdochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09574453567392165275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34240686.post-1887354939873530752007-09-17T20:49:00.000-04:002007-09-17T20:49:00.000-04:00While in most cases change can be good, when it co...While in most cases change can be good, when it comes to historical locations, change is almost always bad.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing your post. :)Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05830768265358293771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34240686.post-73397240629541936612007-09-17T19:20:00.000-04:002007-09-17T19:20:00.000-04:00What a great post...

Instead every town is beginning to look alike. The same chain stores and the same look to them. Malls look alike all over the country as do donut shops, coffee shops etc. That to me is the saddest part. No matter where I go, it looks almost exactly the same as where I've been.pissed off patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08854364015577541981noreply@blogger.com
