After a weekend of salty sea air and sumptuous seafood, we are refreshed and ready for anything that may come our way. <\/p>\n

Wednesday, Flo will be discharged from Rivercrest and Diane will move her ( I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m in charge of the TV) back to Concord Park. We expect a rousing welcome from staff and residents. <\/p>\n

Our friends\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 house on the Cape had cable TV and we watched two new releases, both of which I recommend: The Fugitive and The Bourne Identity.<\/p>\n

Diane\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s best meal? Raw Oysters on the half shell with crab cakes and a glass of Rosemount Estate. Mine? Scallops saut\u00c3\u02c6ed with capers.<\/p>\n

You\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll be happy to know that I talked to only one person, Richard, the owner of one of Chatham\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s oldest and most respected galleries. With a kelly green cable-knit sweater over a blue pin stripped shirt, weejans, and black rimmed reading glasses far down his nose, I thought, here is someone with whom I have nothing in common. Until he misunderstood one of my comments.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153That\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a good price for the Falconer painting!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d At fourteen g\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s, I meant, don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t be ridiculous. But he heard it as it reads. On our way out, I said, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I hate the traffic now and it isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t even the summer.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d He replied,<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153This is a town of five thousand which grows to thirty thousand in July. When the crowds descend, I take my two most expensive paintings and put them in the window. That keeps the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I Am With Stupid\u00e2\u20ac\u009d T-shirt crowd from coming in and dripping their ice cream all over my art.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
