We wanted to leave by 1 but by the time Dan mowed the lawn, I went to Mass w Punch, we packed up all our groceries, sheets, towels, sunscreen, laptops, dog food, just-picked tomatoes [the deer had resisted], ukulele, swimsuits, ocarina, his copy of Moby Dick and mine of Thoreau's Cape Cod, and my primarily pink, turquoise and black wardrobe, it was 4:40 p.m. [We left Montclair about 4:10 and had to circle back because we forgot the EZ Pass.] So glad we have arrived. The stars look beautiful. I will be here 15 nights! I haven't been here that long since I don't know when. Dan staying a week or a bit more, then back home to work, then Sis and her doggy, Butter, drive up to join us a few days later and stay four nights. Figgy holding down the fort, finishing chemistry and history classes and working; she may come next week. Good night.

Yay, the Cape! Settle in, relax and enjoy!
ReplyDeleteXoxo, Nan
I vicariously exhaled a sigh of relief for you. Looking forward to following your fortnight!
ReplyDeleteNan and Kim, thank you for the sweet notes! Love Alice
ReplyDeleteAlice, I've been reading your blog since your "Coastal Living" article. We are Cape soul-sisters! So glad you are here at your favorite place. I've been here since June 14th and leave on August 14.
ReplyDeleteYou would love a new bakery here in Yarmouthport. It's called the Happy Fish Bakery & it's on 6A. Divine little French bakery that makes the most decadent, buttery, flaky almond croissants. They also make their own breads which are excellent. The bakery is only open Thursday-Sunday and they usually sell out of the croissants by noon. Check it out.
Have a wonderful vacation!
Sheriann, what a pretty name! Thank you for reading and that bakery sounds incredible! I will try to make a pilgrimage! Your note makes me happy. Alice
