My weekend on Cape Cod (pics)

My husband grew up near Cape Cod, so we drove through his hometown on the way there. Here is the lighthouse in his hometown.

the boardwalk to the beach



People that contributed toward the boardwalk have their names inscribed on the boards. This was one of my favorites!



Susie, just for you, here is a picture of my feet in the icy Atlantic



We stopped at the Edward Gorey House http://www.edwardgoreyhouse.org/



Cape Cod tourism is having different organizations decorate one of 50 whales that will be placed around Cape Cod. The Gorey one is decorated with his illustrations
