Have Your Tissues Ready Before Reading This Tearjerker.
Cool Cape May is a hugely popular Facebook Group, with more than 42,000 members. For the most part, posts consist of historic photos with reminiscences of good times in summers past, along with current day seascape photos. Occasionally a disagreement might break out over where’s the best place to get raw oysters or cherrystone clams (A. Lobster House).
Then last month the world changed, even in Cape May. People with second homes were leaving their first homes “in the city,” seeking refuge “down the shore.” And that became the topic that was being discussed ad nauseam on Cool Cape May; to the point where Administrator Ben Miller got fed up with being a referee, and he shut the whole thing down – for a day. Then Ben changed his mind, and re-opened the page – with new rules.
I’m so glad that Ben decided to keep Cool Cape May going, otherwise I might not have been able to read this incredible story, and share it with you.
