What I did notice though, the Pacific was a heck of a lot colder than the Atlantic AND the air at the beach on the left coast didn't smell quite the same as it did on the right coast....
I also grew up going to Buzzards Bay and Parkwood Beach where my aunt had a house,also used to love going over the bridges to Cape Cod to my destination of Yarmouth, Dennisport, Falmouth, etc. There's nowhere like good ole Cape Cod!!
