Joanne Niswander: Discovering Motter Park

Posted by Fred Steiner on September 6, 2010 - 1:06pm

By Joanne Niswander

It was a lazy Sunday afternoon. My friend Mary and I had just left another friend's home where we had enjoyed lunch together. One of our table conversations had been about the spiffy new "Motter Metro Park" sign that had recently appeared along Grove Road, just across from Maple Grove Cemetery.

None of us had remembered seeing anything in the news about it. What was this new park in our midst?

So, where is home?

Posted by Fred Steiner on July 17, 2010 - 10:43am

In a couple of weeks I will be back home.

Home in Bluffton.

But where have I really been for the past month and a half? Hasn't this house on Cape Cod been home, too? How do I explain a feeling of "place" that means more than one place?' I have felt very much "at home" here at Woods Hole. The surroundings and the people are different from those I left behind in Bluffton the first of June, but it's been home nevertheless. Some things are different, but I find many things to feel the same.
