End of Spring
A week before Memorial Day
Falmouth is a quiet town.
Next week everything will
change.
Before Memorial Day
folks gather at Betsy's
Diner
or lunch at the Asian
Buffet.
The Dollar Store and the Job
Lot
supply most needs. Town
folks socialize
at charity bazaars on
weekends.
After Memorial Day
pricey restaurants on Main
Street
with French names need
reservations
yet still have waiting
lines.
Coffee shops carry strange
brews
which need to be explained
to townies.
A theater company moves into
town
competing with the amateur
companies,
and there is enough
audiences for all.
The libraries, the Historic
Society,
the sea study institutes and
art venues are among those
augmenting their public
offerings.
Our guests travel to here
and to there
to see and to do.
Visitor from around the
country
and around the world are
here.
The insular, provincial town
becomes a cosmopolitan
place.
