A tough @Patriots loss, but football season has a way of bringing old rituals back. https://t.co/Q8kCvHh126

Our daughters turn 24 and 25 this weekend, which seems mathematically questionable to me.

Their birthdays have always come just as summer begins giving way to fall, which makes me a little more reflective than usual about the passage of time and about how a parent’s place in a child’s life changes along the way.

We may have been bumped from the front row to the mezzanine, but it turns out the view from there is pretty good.

A farewell to our favorite bartender, the sanctity of “our seats,” and the unsettling realization that Chris and I may now have to train the newbies.

This past weekend at the @CCMelodyTent I watched boomers and Gen Zers sing the same ABBA lyrics like they’d grown up together, and for a couple of hours the decades more or less disappeared. I wrote about how a tribute show on the Cape turned into a small experiment in generational harmony, and why, for one night, life really did feel as good as a pop song. https://t.co/qsujYzLhBj

Just when I thought I had Cape Cod summer figured out, my body informed me that lobster rolls, clam chowder, and middle age now come with terms and conditions—my latest Substack is about that unexpected realization.

Hazy, but still a lovely morning at @NotreDame

A night with @YachtleyCrew at the @CCMelodyTent reminded me that the best part of a #CapeCod summer isn't just the music, it's the people. Captain's hats, If You Like Piña Coladas, Crazy Train, and one wonderfully eclectic crowd under the same tent.

I turned part of my #CapeCod backyard into a meadow. What could go wrong? https://t.co/ZYVOAV3MEE

Last summer I turned part of my #CapeCod backyard into a wildflower meadow. I thought I was creating habitat for pollinators.

I accidentally built luxury housing for rabbits... and unleashed my beagle's ancestral instincts.

Summer on #CapeCod + an educator who might overthink things while sitting in bridge traffic = Cape Cod Office Hours.

New essay: why “Escape (The Piña Colada Song)” is both baffling and irresistible.

I’ve started a new newsletter: Cape Cod Office Hours.
An educator on Cape Cod overthinks yacht rock, speeches, and the stories we tell ourselves about public life.
First post (a little mission statement) is up now. Come join office hours from the Cape 👇
