It is my country, too, and our NYC daughter and family are planning to stay with us for some of the time. So are my two siblings, and possibly some members of Congress who are friends.

I refuse to be intimidated by a bunch of wannabe Yertle the Turtle control freaks. Plus, we have friends among the locals after 40 years of going there. Wellfleet, Truro, Provincetown—these are not mere tourist destinations for us. They are part of our lives by now. We do not plan to stay away just because Trump, Noem, Bondi and Rubio said “Boo!”
