Home and away

Proud and tall. Before we left for this year’s Cape Cod getaway, I dashed around the backyard and front-yard gardens to catch the blooms. One whispery, tall powder puff stood tall way out back. And in Sandwich, Mass. While we were walking the grounds of the Heritage Museum and Gardens in Sandwich, Mass., I spied…

A big year for the Cape Cod flowers

A beautiful year. Our Central New York friends Julie and Aaron and their son Evan happened to be enjoying Cape Cod during some of the same days as my dear wife Karen and I this spring. We convinced them that joining us for a visit to the Heritage Museum and Gardens was a good idea.…

One last look at those gardens

This place slays me. One last look at my photo roll for need-to-shares from the Heritage Museums and Gardens in Sandwich, Mass., is warranted before I end this streak of shares from this year’s journey for the Cape Cod adventurers.

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…
