Senator John McCain did not show up in Congress and missed voting on additional GI benefits. He was against the bill, as it were.
As a Conservative,this is his mindset.
How many veterans from the wars, on this Memorial day weekend have intentions to vote for John McCain for President? A former WWII Veteran asking!
How many are going to give him a free pass for being involved with professional lobbyists working toward getting him elected? Namely! Charles A. Black?

This is great...it brings back so many memories of Craigville, we always stayed in Craigville Conference Center...and for years I borught my five children so that they too could know the magic! One of my sons when he was five announced ," Mummie, when I am big this is where I will live!" He felt such a connection with the Ocean! He has lived in Cape Cod for twenty years now! Keep up the writing...can't wait to read the next chapter! Thank you!

If I were editing this story, I'd go about 5 paragraphs don and just suddenly add an orgy for no reason.... but I'm French, and we sort of have strange movies over on the Continent.

Your girl looks like she has much greater leg power than you do. Never argue with her in bed.

I have spent 1000's of hours at Craigville Beach. It is a magic spot. I havent lived full time on the Cape now for 22 years but I always tell people the Cape can be the best place in the World and at other times the most depressing place in the World. Most places are about the same year round but the Cape has the euphoria of the Summer and the isolation of the Winter that are so far apart. Craigville is a jewel that I have enjoyed all of my life. Thanks for the story.

About This Blog

summerintime140_195Norman Goroshnik is a New Yorker in every sense and in every way, still retaining his New York accent in his 8th decade. Born and raised in Brooklyn to Russian heritage parents, he lived through the depression with wall to wall love. On a vacation to Craigville Beach in Centerville on Cape Cod in 1950 he met a wonderful girl. When he returned home he discovered that he had to write about it. Spending endless days at the Main Brooklyn library, he taught himself how to write, and he wrote a manuscript which has languished dusty on a shelf for over a half a century until the miracle of the Internet allows us to bring it to you - one chapter at a time.
