If this is right its only because I "cheated" and did a little research....not because I already knew it...

A Hint (a freakin give-a-way hint)... think of the angler on the cape, who has longevity, and consistency on his side... still.

Ya gotta have alot of good self worth to admit that. :musc:

Jimbo 09-21-2007 03:04 PM

Some of my rememberances are vague snapshots in my mind now.
Remember when:
Marathon in West Dennis was a HoJo's?
The Jolly Captain's arm moved?
There was a guy named Sam Gale who for years took out fishing parties from the Ferry Street dock on Bass River?
Tastee Tower in Dennisport used to have singers walking around?
Riverview B&T also rented dories with small Johnson outboards?
How many cottages on Shore Rd in N. Truro were named after flowers?
There was horse race track around Wychmere Harbor? (I'd be very be surprised if anyone does)

Remember when
 
spot burning was hip on s-b not its frowned upon.

P-Town had a town crier and he was straight.:rotflmao:

thortum 09-26-2007 09:31 AM

when you could have a 12'' trout on your solid fiberglass rod for a full hour and never know it!:bo:

kevin d 09-27-2007 03:12 PM

When Rocky Point was a place well worth going to?

The Feast in Portsmouth at the PPACC was THE place to see your friends during the summer.

You could fish almost anywhere on Aquidneck Island and nobody bothered you or had your car towed.

wow.. now it says "No Beach Access"
Ardath and little Joe feeding the Eldia crew.. Glenn Svenningsen building and driving the "raft" that moved the station.. people leaving their buggys in the field, and the barns near the duck farm, and then after that...over behind Bill Sunocos house on Rt. 39.. not only no stickers, but no liscence plates on a lot of the buggys.. the chicken and turkey pies at the duck farm... duck eggs.. people Smiling and Waving, even if they didn;t know you.. everybody helping everybody else... lot of us say that 4 wheel drive ruined the beach... Charlie Darling and Robley Fulchers camp.. the "Duck Inn".. just below the station on Pochet hill.. their outhouse with the two views.. Ocean, and Bay...

Old Goat..If I don;t know you, we musta waved at each other :wave: at some point. Thanks for the memories...
