The Things We Did Last Summer
I am the Bard of Bennies, the Prince of Shoobies. My grandmother rode trains from Philly to Atlantic City in 1920. My grandfather worked on the Million Dollar Pier. My aunt bought a bungalow in Somers Point before WWII & moved there. My brother married a girl from Margate. The spawn of my clan is spread from the Banks of the mucky Manasquan to the swampy backwaters of Great Egg Harbor.
