Gale winds battered Cape Cod during the night, and raindrops still glistened on the windows as our last Liberty Coin guests trooped in for a cozy breakfast: organic brioche made from another great King Arthur Flour mix, fruit salad with organic melon, and my signature organic granola, which they pronounced, “delicious.” It was with mixed feelings that I watched the couple drive off in their Prius as Sven brought in the New York Times, wrapped in not one, but two blue plastic wrappers.
The house is now ours again, but last year the season lasted longer, producing more income. We have one booking left: a long weekend for Seagull Cottage. A quick scan of the first page of the Times did not make me feel much better. Economists expect job losses to exceed 200,000 once the election is over. People will always want to go on vacation but will reality allow spending money on one? The hospitality industry is sure to feel the pain, especially during the off-season. Who knows what the future will bring?
