Get to Jimmy Catfish's Lake on Foot, Horseback, or by Plane

Codfresh Lake, Cape Cod

You can get there on foot,
on a bicycle, or on horseback,
or in a single engine airplane - but you can't
get there in your Audi or even in a Ford.

Here's a snippet from Jimmy Catfish: Chapter Nine

Cisco decides to take Blue 

on the Cape Cod Flyer to Hyannis:

After the passengers were boarded, the conductor saw that 

there was another person waiting for the train, whose

recumbent form had been obscured behind the crowd.

It was a man in a wheel-chair. He was attired in the 'service' 

uniform of the Merchant Marine: a black suit coat with four 

yellow sleeve stripes signifying his rank, black pants, white 

shirt and a black tie. A white captain's hat partially covered 

a thatch of curly, black hair. The man's olive skinned face was

set in a look that might have been a grimace or a threat; the 

conductor was not sure which.

Beside the Captain, seated on his back legs was a 

magnificent, blue-eyed Border Collie with 

a shiny black coat and fluffy white fur around his

face and throat. 


"We don't allow dogs on board the train," murmured the 

conductor in a tone more apologetic than authoritative. 


"I am Francisco da Silva, former Captain of the S.S. Lynette C

Cisco stated. "And we  do not allow dogs on board ships

either.  And yet there are dogs on nearly every good sailing 

vessel or sailing ship in the Atlantic.  A good captain

knows when to bend a rule.  I assume a good conductor

has the same knowledge.  Permission to come aboard?"
