MCCAIG-WELLES IN THE NEW YORK TIMES
Twilight of the Summer Share
By Anna Bahney | July 7, 2006
CAROLINA FLYNN remembers those summers from 1982 to 1985, from Olivia Newton-John's "Physical" to Sheena Easton's "Strut" as carefree fun. She was in her mid-20's, working as a temp, and she and five girlfriends from her childhood in Park Slope, Brooklyn, shared the same rental house in Hampton Bays on Long Island.
"It was very plain, and we had to drive to get to the beach," said Ms. Flynn, who is now 47 and lives in Dyker Heights, Brooklyn. "It had only a few rooms, so usually someone would sleep on the extra sofa. And maybe someone would crash on the floor."
