Authors:
Genres: Fiction
Fishermen who don’t have four-wheel-drive vehicles or lack the time to drive all the way out to the far beaches of Chappaquiddick can park in the lot and walk to the gut to do their fishing. A lot of fish have been caught in the gut, some of them by me.When the idea of the lot was first proposed to the town selectmen, a number of North Neck homeowners howled to the moon. The neighborhood’s ambience was going to be ruined by hordes of fishermen; ecological disaster would occur; the end of the wo...rld was at hand. Lawsuits were threatened; pious arguments were printed in the local papers; people who had their own stairways down the bluffs condemned the proposed stairway as a threat to the environment; searches for endangered plants and insects were demanded. Great was the hue and cry of CHOA people and others.But all in vain. The town held firm and built the lot, path, and stairway, and, lo, the sun continued to rise in the east, North Neck land prices did not plummet, and the cry of the turtle was still heard throughout the land.From the top of the bluffs, Joshua and Diana and I had a good view of the gut.MoreLess
