Ok, let me start by saying I was never a huge fan of this place, so personally I won't miss it, but it is familiar to anyone who has fished the Outer Cape for any significant amount of time.
My problem is this: We get a full page newspaper article every time a seal gets saved or a plover gets run over. Then, when you see a directly related story that shows the cost of protecting these animals in the way the laws force us to, there is no mention of the effect that beach closures probably had on the revenues of this restaurant. I would say that closures had to have cost this place revenues in the tens of thousands of dollars over the last couple of years. Maybe more. But it seems that no one other than fishermen and a handful of business owners can connect the dots here.
Ok, I'm done...just frustrating to me.
