This episode is the first scene in Wrigley Days, the second play in The Silverfields of Northbrook trilogy. It's summer 1956. The family visits Glencoe Beach, a short drive east from Gregg Road over the Edens Expressway to Lake Michigan's edge. Each summer throughout the Silverfields' Northbrook years, the family owns a public beach pass. For ten dollars per season, the Silverfields share the surf & summer's largess.
