Let’s walk local

Love the lines. My dear wife Karen and I know we can appreciate the moments we steal away with a stroll at the Dennis Port beach just a mile or so up the road from the house we enjoyed for this year’s Cape Cod getaway. Peaceful. We park, we walk, I snap a photo or…

Beautiful scene at Chatham

She’s feeling at home. One thing I’m sure of when we arrive for our annual Cape Cod getaway. I have to get my dear wife Karen to a beach, pronto. She’s a Los Angeles native, after all, no matter that how long our lives have been based in Central New York. It was a cool,…

Beach, babies

Wind in their hair. One day during this year’s Cape Cod getaway, we coaxed the cherished rescue mutt back into the car and drove the mile or so back to the two beaches where we walked her from the house we rented the past few years before this year’s model came back available on the…

Away we go

Every dog needs a fire hydrant. My dear wife Karen and I decided that we’d get our steps in every day with our cherished rescue mutt during our Cape Cod getaway. We’d go out the front door and say, you pick the way. The plan included letting our aging rescue to pick how long we’d…

Great getaway for the dog

Room to roam. The fact that our cherished rescue mutt liked the yard at this house helped convince my dear wife Karen and I to return when we spotted it back on the online site after a few years spent for our annual Cape Cod getaway at a place closer to the beach. Relaxing, too.…

Familiar and new on the Cape

Great vibes for sure. Now that we’re back home safe and sound, it’s time to share this year’s Cape Cod getaway for my dear wife Karen and I. When she started getting down to booking business, back when it was still officially winter, Karen noticed that the second house of the three that we’ve stayed…

Tuckered out

Rest easy. Terrific daughter Elisabeth reported with a great text photo that Vinny and Izzy may have been happy to have the whole place back to just she, George Three and them when the last cookout visitors had said bye. Well done, kids and kitties!

Pop on the side

Grow tall. I was glad to see this purple beauty popping up high in the side yard at Elisabeth and George’s place as we got ready to eat his special pulled pork, burgers and way more sides than I could ever get down easily.

Hanging out there

Pretty bunch. While strolling their grounds during family cookout time, I was glad to see terrific daughter Elisabeth picked up a pretty handing plant for their yard, too. Another beauty.

Front flowers pop

Stay away, critters. Terrific daughter Elisabeth and George Three won’t give up on their garden missions, even though their neighborhood critters have in the past few years taken their munching habits to so many of their plants. Here’s hoping this year’s batch remain unmunched!
