Emma says there is no doubt about it, my granddaughter Robin is the coolest kid on the Cape Cod beach, at least in Wellfleet, Mass. She has clearly taken to the freedom of the beach, the sand, the water, the gulls. Emma suggested that I Facetime Robin, but I have to say I really dislike Facetime, we just stare and babble at each other.

I’ll give it a try. I hope to see Robin shortly, I think Robin, like her mother and grandmother, will be going to Wellfleet every summer of her life, or a beach just like it.
