New Bedford to Woods Hole in Falmouth on
the Cape
drive our car onto the ferry
a couple of hours later
we’re in Falmouth on our way up the Cape
through Harwich and on to Provincetown
Harwich was a stop
Ocean Spray cranberry bogs
mapped out squares
25 yards each way
deep red and green plant life mixed in
this was one of my dad’s chosen rides
he loved cranberry juice
he was good to us
he knew the New England roads like
his trouser pocket
yes
he did
he did
