Although I was born on the Cape and live in MA now... I grew up in New Jersey where I learned how to 'wawk the dawg' rather than 'pahk the cah'. But even that accent was beaten out of me when I went to college in Virginia. So much razzing was heaped upon me that my friends took pity on me a taught me how to speak (northern) Virginian - which is pretty nondescript. If you catch me right after I've been speaking with my family, you might catch a little bit of the Jersey 'aw'... but that's not what you're wanting to hear, I guess. I could put one of my kids on for you... I'd guess they've picked up a bit of the local accent .
They're wicked cool!
