foreshore ripple.
The same, but different every day. Without Google, it would have taken me weeks to learn the name “foreshore ripples”. I would love to make a time lapse video of low tide on one of the bay beaches in order to study how the ripples change from tide to tide. Do they stay the same?
the elusive green flash.
The “Green Flash”. Is it real? Or is it like the tooth fairy? I stood there on the beach, alone, but surrounded by like-minded folks. We had all gathered to watch the sun slowly, slowly, then amazingly quickly, fall below the horizon. I overheard family conversations about how the sun isn’t moving but we are
progress.
At the town meeting the other night, after some debate, the citizens voted to allocate the funds to build a new building for the harbormaster. With the amenities required for the job. So before long, this little shack will likely be no more. Progress is good, but it is also sad to see the quaint
heart’s home.
Over the years, I’ve found that my heart has a few homes. Not just one, and not necessarily the one I live in. I have some favorite places – XM in DC is always a place that make my heart feel alive and happy (my “happy place”). I could add a few others to that

As much as I love the Cape in the summer, I think I might love it in the winter even more. It’s quiet and relaxed. Everyone is friendly, helpful, and peaceful. I wish we had been able to spend more time, but there’s always next time!

Provincetown in the winter! I’m in love. A tourist town turns small town in a lovely way. The market, recommend by my jewelry who is really a chef, was perfect.

Snow on the bay! Such a strange sight to see the snow mixing with the salt water in the shallows …. I hope to one day see snow on the beach at low tide!

Cape Cod in the winter is beautiful!

Been a bit too long since we’ve been to the beach.

While we were on the Cape, Chloe and I rode the Nantucket Ferry over to Nantucket one day. We had lunch, shopped in town, walked to Jetty Beach, rode the bus back, and explored. We had a wonderful day!

Always a fun time in Provincetown. We got there early, missing the traffic and the crowds. By the time we left, the streets were teeming with people!

THe fast ferry is more expensive, but worth it! We had comfortable seat, wi-fi, and power. Out through Hyannis, past all the sailboats, and through the fog to Nantucket. Parking was a little confusing, but we managed it without any mishap.

Camille and I headed to the Northeast for some college touring over her September break. We learned a lot, and her top choices for schools was completely re-arranged afterwards. We managed to squeeze in a tiny little bit of exploring as well. We had a lovely evening in Boston, where we connected with on of
food in boston.
Food in Boston. What comes to mind? Seafood, for sure. Then maybe some continental cuisines? We spend our one evening in Boston in Chinatwon, enjoying the Lantern Festival and the food. First stop was bubble tea (they were out of bubbles) and cake from the 101 Bakery. The cake was cute Camille could barely bring
summer travels.
Summer. The time for our big family trips. We’ve made some memories on our travels – camping in Evie on the Out West trip. Living in Galway for three weeks on the Irish summer. Turkey, Japan, St. John, Cape Cod, and more. Unless by some miracle the stars align next summer and we finally get

In addition to three weeks in Galway this summer, we spent a week on Cape Cod with Rob’s family. I had work to do – catching up after Ireland – so spent most of my down time relaxing at the house and driving the kids around. But in a lovely place!

Back in July, we spent a week on the Cape (Cod, for those of you who might be unsure to which Cape I am referring). I had one big wish – to take the ferry out to either Martha’s Vineyard or Nantucket. So on Monday, we loaded up our bags and drove to the big

Today is National Gummi Worm Day and National Tapioca Pudding Day. Up early to work and take care of things. Rob’s friend Bobby came with his family for a few hours. Camille and I went to the Cape Cod Mall for her comic books, but we also went to the bookstore for books and to
