My parents once owned a
timeshare property in Hyannis, Cape Cod, back when timeshares were overpriced
and didn’t hold their value. In fact, this particular property was so bad in
the years after they bought, that they couldn’t even get anybody to rent it for
their week, which happened to be the last week of August each year.
I actually went and stayed in
this condo one year because I hated the idea of my parents losing money, and I
wanted to see how bad it could be that nobody would rent.
Well, it was bad. Tired. Worn out. Almost but not quite sagging. Perhaps sagging emotionally.
However, I had a blast that
week, swimming, shopping, seeing the sights on the Cape. So when I was looking
around for ideas of where to send Carly this time around, Hyannis came to mind.
Mind you, I have her staying
in a much nicer house, overlooking the beach, in a fictional town, but my time
on the Cape provided some insights into the setting.
