Nantucket With The Family Last week when I wrote my column, I thought I was going to be home for a month (a very rare occasion), but right after I pressed send my dad, brother, and nephew called and asked me to jump on a plane and join them in Nantucket. My brother has a house there, and Nantucket is just too difficult to pass up in the summer. Also, spending time with just the boys was possibly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so I cashed in some United miles and I was off the following morning.
