A Winter Walk Along Cape Cod Bay

Took a walk along Cape Cod Bay this morning. It was quiet and beautiful. One of the last of the fishing boats was being pulled from the water for its season of rest and refurbishing. The marsh is a topaz brown and when the sun comes up on the dewy marsh, it sparkles with diamonds. It really is an awesome sight!

There are still some craft fairs on the Cape, holiday strolls, and on the 12th of December, there will be Tea and Music with pianist, Lynne Weber, who will be performing at the Cape Cod Museum of Art, Route 6A, in Dennis. Free for members and $4. for non-members.

At the Provincetown Unitarian Meeting House the Outer Cape Chorale will perform "Imagine the Music of the Beatles," at 7 PM, on Friday and Saturday the 12th and 13th. It is free.

On Saturday there is a holiday cookie stroll featuring 12 Bass River homes, cookies and recipe book. The tour is $15 and starts at the Yarmouth Library, 312 Old Main Street.

Remember bathrobes are on sale for $110. Gift Certificates are available -- a great idea for the person who has everything. Also, a great idea for grab bag presents or for the office worker who deserves a little something extra. They can be purchased in any amount -- the recipients can book the dates suitable for their travel plans, and they have the option to pick the room that they really want. Gift Certificates can also be used for massages. We also have mugs and Christmas ornaments. So avoid the eBay crunch and buy the gift of relaxation and pampering.

There's a Fair in the Air!

Starting July 18th, the BARNSTABLE COUNTY FAIR is back! An annual Cape Cod "must do" with rides, a petting zoo and more! This year there's a demolition derby, bull riding and great entertainers. So kick back and enjoy this old-time event.

When you are full of cotton candy, fried dough and popcorn, settle down on the quiet side of the Cape at the Whalewalk Inn. Take walks on the National Seashore's trails, take a dip in the sea, enjoy a boiled lobster, and then spend the evening relaxing in your own whirlpool tub, or the hot tub in the Spa.

See you on Cape Cod!
