Allergy Friendly Friday 7/15/11 and Wellfleet with a Shellfish Allergy

Allergy Friendly Friday

(TGIAFF)

 

Greetings from Wellfleet!  I’m back home on Cape Cod, in the town where I grew up.  This is my son Lennon, fishing off the pier.  He’s stirring up trouble wearing a Yankee’s hat in hardcore Red Sox territory.  He was born in NYC, so maybe he has a bit of an excuse.
