Touches on people buying up shore homes for summer homes.
I grew up in the shore area and the mixed feelings brought about by tourists and summer home owners is real. There is no animosity toward them in this story.
At the end the grandfather’s life is reclaimed by the sea in a storm. Also mentioned is his grandson and adult daughter coming to stay with him after their husband/father dies of illness. ( )
