Just a quick walk on your beach, please and thank you

This year more than any other, our journey to the public beach in Dennisport, Mass. during our annual Cale Cod getaway was full of expectations and fraught with the weight of the state of our world both. So we wore our masks in case the beach was crowded. Thankfully, we were able to find our…

We’re wondering if we spotted an eagle in its nest

Upon exiting Sundancers after a couple outdoor ‘Coladas, my dear wife Karen and I decided to stroll out on a winding wooden dock. Our curiosity was rewarded with the sight of a big nest atop a metal pole. We wound around the dock maze for the best possible view of the big bird, wondering, hoping,…
