Old Beach Haven, NJ

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    In March, my cousin's wife died unexpectantly.  I went to Long Beach Island for the funeral. But before I went to the funeral house, I drove around the length of this 18 mile  island and found that I was drawn to every old house, longing for the days when everyone was still alive: my parents, my grandparents, the aunts and the uncles. Where did they all go? I wanted to go back to 1972.
