The Double-Crested Cormorants Love “The Rock” At Rock Harbor Rock On Cape Cod.

You can still see all the Cormorants congregating in “the rock” at Rock Harbor. They love to perch up there  and spread their wings to dry them!

Pretty soon they will be gone for the winter and we’ll await their arrival next spring and look forward to seeing them atop “the rock” at Rock Harbor again.

Getting Ready For Winter At Coast Guard Beach On Cape Cod.

The wheelchair accessible blue mats are gone at Coast Guard Beach for the winter. These mats are wonderful in the summer as they provide a non-slippery access mat so that people with disabilities can enjoy the beach.

Arey’s Pond Boat Yard on Cape Cod.

There are still a lot of boats in the water at Arey’s Pond Boat Yard in Orleans. Many sailors took advantage of the gorgeous, warm weather that we had last week and  got out on the water for another sail before the cold weather finally arrives. (Click on  blog link for other photo.)

I edited this photo two different ways… I couldn’t decide which one I liked better. What do you think?

The CG36500 At Rock Harbor On Cape Cod.

The CG36500 is still in the water and docked  at Rock Harbor. “Built in 1946, it is notable for its involvement in the 1952 SS Pendleton rescue, one of the most daring such events recorded in the history of the United States Coast Guard . It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places  in 2005, and now serves as a museum boat.”

What a wonderful boat and a truly inspiring story! I’m sure it’s almost time to move this famous boat to its “winter home.”
