As far as vacations go it would be Cape Cod. We stayed in a cottage at Mr Coe’s (there were lots of cottages on the property. We went for rides on Pony’s, rode on a “swing” not like a typical swing, it was a board that went around a center pole, and you sat on the end, like the end of a see saw. Half the trip around seemed to be over a cliff, or that is how it seemed from a child’s perspective. In Cape Cod we also went to the beach at snake pond and went swimming.
Also, my mom used to take my sister and for the day to Rye Playland, and the Whip was the BEST ride.
Other early memories were flying kites, frisbee, sledding, and playing the card games like crazy 8’s. These were primarily with my father.
That might sound like they were divorces, but they weren’t, still married now.
