The Cape


Cape Cod is flatter than much of Kansas,
more crowded and faster paced than many suburbs,
and the water is generally too cold for swimming.
Why then is it such a popular vacation spot?
I'm not sure.
I don't think the Cape can work it's magic over a long weekend.
It's charms are out of sync
with the modern work/play hard ethos.
You need to spend enough time there to appreciate 
the soft light and gentle scenery.

Hello Cheryl:
Cape Cod looks to be from these wonderful images exactly the kind of place with which we could fall in love.

What a splendid and most enjoyable post for which many thanks.

Hi Cheryl, The weather looks amazing there . . . must be so nice. I love the beach. I grew up at Santa Monica beach as a child, we lived in Ocean Park. Great memories there:O) I think about you often and wonder how things are going for you . . I'm sure life is alot more quiet now, for me it was "too quiet". I sort of liked all the noise Dave would make in my life. God Bless, Sandy xo
