A Little Bit of Cape Cod in My Life

  • We left Montclair about 11:30, by the time we packed many bags, Skipper watered our neighbors’ garden and we filled the gas tank. ⛽️ 
  • We stopped in Old Saybrook, Connecticut for drinks and things to go with the turkey sandwiches we made.
  • We hit bad rain in Massachusetts but not on the Cape proper.
  • We stopped at Mac’s Seafood Market in North Eastham for dinner. Skip had the fried clam plate--we shared yummy kale salad. I had steamed, chilled lobster claw meat (one claw) with melted butter (lobster also shared--stingily--w Skip) and potato salad. Splurge.
  • We drove to Nauset Light Beach 🏖 around 7 and stood in the parking lot above the sea. Many black seals and the accompanying warning for swimmers about Great White Sharks 🦈, which feed on the aforementioned.
  • We unpacked the car, filled up the fridge with milk, veggies, chicken and yogurt, etc. and put fresh sheets on the beds. This is Camp Cape Cod, I joked to Skip, remembering how both she and Fig arrived at sleepaway camp as young girls and made up their beds. With the pandemic and for other reasons, Skippy hasn’t been back to sleepaway camp for maybe three years.
  • Watched a movie. Off to sleep. Clammy weather. Gratitude.

Good nite. 🚙 🌊 🧳 👛
