Trails ‘N Tales: The Ghosts of Cape Cod Past

Standard

What a day of adventure and delightful discoveries!  We traveled to the most eastern tip of the Cape.  Lovely bike and walking trails to the shore led to an early coast guard station.  The  docents,  Pat and Richard Ryder impressed us  with stories of the valor of  men who daily risked their lives

The pilgrim monument in Provincetown is 250 feet tall.  It  is actually where the pilgrims first landed.

Sunset reflected pink and blue in the river water outside our windows when we returned to our room.  Like a sweet benediction of praise for the care and faithfulness of our Great God.   He has shown us so much beauty in His creation; the inspiration of selfless  men laying down their lives to save others; and the many  kindnesses we have received from others all along this trip. To God be the Glory.

Cape Cod adventures

We met a sweet couple in an antique store yesterday.  She was raised in Maine on lobsters.  Louis  and Gorgine inspired us to buy a  whole lobster at the fish market.  The market cooks and breaks the shell for us.   Ken thought we should give this crustacean a name but I couldn’t get so chummy with my intended dinner.  The rest of the day we explored the surrounding community, beaches, and shops.  Everywhere we went the people were delightful!  The day ended with our lobster feast.  Yum!
