Have you listened to A Cape Cod Notebook yet this week? Click on over to WCAI (http://www.capeandislands.org/post/last-swim) to hear and read my newest essay, “Last Swim.” I think the long title would be “Last Swim, or: The End of Something.”

Two truths: 1) I never care about my lawn to begin with. 2) I still haven’t taken my bathing suit out of my car. (I did run out of oil last week, but that’s another story.)

You can also read about the origins of A Cape Cod Notebook and learn more about me and the gents I share the airwaves with over on WGBH’s website this month. Or you can read it excerpted here…I took that picture on the first afternoon I stayed at the Fowler Shack in the dunes, just over a year ago.
