Some days on Cape Cod.

Me and Mrs MikeInMa are down to Cape Cod. Beautiful weather. Monday, the heat and humidity comes back.

Sesuit harbor, on the inside of the Cape elbow. A small harbor.






An excellent lunch spot. I had a cup of strawberry and double chocolate. A fine combination.


A small beach just outside Hyannis harbor. The harbor is off to right, just out of sight.




Beach roses. The air is full of their scent.




High speed people ferry to/from Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard.





Twin hull catamarans.







Lots more room in the channel than it looks.


We drove around to the other side of Lewis Bay.

That's a vehicle ferry heading into Hyannis, which is now to the left.




The HYC is the Hoity-toity Yacht Club.


We are in the JFK Memorial area. There's a Korean War Memorial nearby


I'm guessing there will be other pictures.

 

Thanks for sharing your day with us.

 

Least I can do compared with your trip pictures.

 

Cheers, from the bay!

 

Yum! Hopefully we beat the traffic back over the bridge(s).

 

I hope you got a good deal.

We've day tripped to Marshfield, at my cousin's place, a little north of Plymouth.










Minimal bridge traffic at 9:30am. Hoping for the same on the trip back, later this afternoon.

 

Looks tasty

 

Looks beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
Gotta ask, does the ice cream shop have Mocha Chip?

 

I miss the smell of low tide.

 

Seems they do.

Got a decent price, have a buddy that lobsters. The kids are currently sucking on the legs. Traffic was light I think people were enjoying the nicer day of the weekend.

 

No traffic to speak of going over the Sagamore bridge.

I need to find a buddy like that!

 

It'll come around again.

 

Today was Canal day.

Started at the west end at Buzzards Bay.

I looked down and found a strange looking stone that was chiseled away on one edge. A primitive cutting/scraping stone.






Some Canal traffic




WeldrDave came to mind






Facing the east end of the canal, into Cape Cod Bay.

Since the Baltimore Bridge accident, it seems a 2nd tug now escorts certain traffic. The 2nd tug turned around once the barge reached the last canal channel marker.

 

I think those fuel barges have required an escort since a spill in Buzzards Bay and an accident in the canal a few years back. Might be just single hull fuel barges - the rules keep changing.

 

Great pictures, Mike. Thank for sharing your trip. I would love to visit the area with ya'll as tour guides.

 

That could be fun.

 

Thanks for sharing, looks like a gorgeous place! I feel like watching Jaws now for some reason.

 

Good summertime flick!
