Postcard From Plymouth, Mass.

In Plymouth:

• A cooking fire destroys a straw hut at the Plymouth Plantation Living History museum.
• A "lumpy, patched-together granite mound surrounded by wet sand and inevitable tourist coins" becomes grounds for a sacred memorial.
• A food historian outlines what the Pilgrims would really have eaten.
• Opinion writers celebrate what they see as America's first Occupy movement.
