And the third best thing about Cape Cod was the food. Dad averaged about two pounds of fresh seafood a day, for a grand vacation tally of fourteen pounds (yes, he kept track!). I’m not big enough to try seafood, but I had my share of roadside fare from Kate’s, Cobie’s, The Brewster Coffee Shop, and the Brewster Store (you know, healthy stuff like hot dogs, french fries with “ee-yup” (catsup), donuts, and ice cream). We toasted Mom and Dad’s fourth wedding anniversary at The Lobster Claw in Orleans — we wanted to go to Land Ho but apparently so did everyone else on the Cape.
