Cape Cod is at the southern end of Route 3, a natural peninsula turned into a large island: the Cape Cod Canal separates the Cape from the rest of southeastern Massachusetts. Two bridges connect the rest of the world to us. Cape Cod is shaped like an arm flexing its bicep, and the bridges connect where the shoulder would be. There are 13 towns on the Cape. One highway, Route 6, runs the length from Bourne (the shoulder) to Provincetown (the fist); 6A runs parallel from the shoulder to the crook of the elbow. Route 28 runs south from...

All the windows were smashed and the glass fell on us. My father shouted, 'Look at my arm!' I pushed him aside and took the wheel. He had a huge hole in his chest.
