Tom and Parker visit Provincetown, Massachusetts

It’s fun to imagine what the hardy band of puritans who first visited the idyllic natural harbor of Provincetown back in 1620 would have thought of the place these days. What was once a desolate, low-lying expanse of dunes, scrub oak, poison ivy, and pitch pine surrounded by saltwater is now a bustling tourist destination and thriving artist community. Sure, the winter months can be quiet, but summer feels like a cacophonous, never-ending mardi gras, with drag queens patrolling commercial street amid noisy throngs of foreign tourists and family vacationers. Numerous restaurants, galleries, and boutiques now line the streets, alleys, and wharves that were once the sole domain of fishermen and whalers.
