Greetings from Atlantic City! I am having the time of my life here! This is definitely one of the best birthday presents I have ever received, and I owe it all to my cousin Edward.

The one thing I haven’t seen here in Atlantic City that I did witness in Wildwood is gun fights between the rumrunners and the Coast Guard. I’ll never forget standing on the beach watching the two sides battle it out on the ocean (Prohibition: When the Wildwoods Were
