My father drove us in one of these

Let’s go for it. The past two years, we walked right past the building that screamed <em>Come see the old cars</em> before we exited the Heritage Museum and Gardens in Sandwich, Mass. This year the Cape Cod adventurers said, yes, please. Now that’s a beauty. Good choice. These beauties are pristine! Woodie wagon! The two…

Did I mention the lovely Cape flowers?

Open says-a us. So many different species made we four Cape Code adventurers gape as we wound through the many paths of the Heritage Museum and Gardens in Sandwich, Mass. Different stages of purple … and not a dandelion. I hope my iPhone photography provides even a snippet of the wonder that my dear wife…

Artists still shine in garden spotlight

Branching out. In our third straight visit to the Heritage Museum and Gardens in Sandwich, Mass., we discovered the curators are consistently fantastic at discovering artists to install their pieces among the paths. We Cape Cod adventurers appreciated their creativity. Wings of art. I made sure to stop to capture the beauty, and my dear…

These flower gardens in Sandwich still make us feel full

The Cape Cod adventurers chose the Sunday of Memorial Day Weekend for a return trip to the Heritage Museum and Gardens in Sandwich, Mass. We happily toured the expansive grounds together during Rhododendron Festival in 2021. My dear wife Karen and I returned ourselves last year. We found the state of blooming from species to…

The Wellfleet connection

No cell bars required. Of course we Cape Cod adventurers parked and walked the quaint Main Street of Wellfleet before we ventured to The Beachcomber. I noticed that the Verizon folks thought the sidewalk in front of their storefront was the right place for a pay phone. Considering that George Two, Sue and I had…

We like that Beachcomber feeling

Worth the wait. A friendly guy by the name of Andrew my dear wife Karen and I chatted with our first night during this year’s Cape Cod getaway asked us if we’d ever experienced The Beachcomber in Wellfleet. The kids thought they’d like to try a joint like that. Windswept. Food and drink on the…

Yes, we all can walk to the beach

Yes, we have access! My dear wife Karen, our cherished rescue mutt Ellie and I couldn’t wait to show terrific daughter Elisabeth and fantastic fiance George Three just how close the beach is from the tidy cottage we’d rented in Dennis Port. Us three arrived at check-in time on the Friday of Memorial Day weekend,…

Happy faces for Cape Cod vacation 2023

Joyful spot for us on the Cape. We returned to the near-beach cottage for another year of rest, relaxation and good times in Dennis Port, Mass., for a 10-day stretch that began the Friday of Memorial Day Weekend. My dear wife Karen and our cherished rescue mutt Ellie show how much they love the spot…

A pretty place in Lake George

My dear wife Karen and I did not have to get back into the car to have a great first night in Lake George. The walk around the grounds at Cresthaven Lodge was amazing. The place had many finer points. We saw one gentleman retreated from the pool. Or maybe it was the beach. Yes,…
