Phil took this photograph of me braving the wind and the cold to run down to Nauset Beach and take a photograph. I really liked his version with Liam’s Restaurant all boarded up and the picnic tables up on end with the snow on the beach. The clouds were spectacular!
The tide at Boat Meadow Creek in Eastham was exceptionally high a few days ago. Usually Boat Meadow Creek is a little creek that meanders through the salt marsh. At high tide, sometimes the creek might go over its banks a bit.
This day was exceptionally high with the entire salt marsh looking like a continuation of Cape Cod Bay.
It was a cold and windy early morning at Nauset Beach on Cape Cod, but a glorious day to take a walk. Any day is a glorious day to take a walk on Nauset Beach, or any beach on the National Seashore.
The sun had just gone behind the clouds so it looks almost like dusk.
I loved the wind blowing the spume from the waves.
This was such a pretty day at First Encounter Beach in Eastham on Cape Cod Bay. This is the beach where a hunting expedition from the sailing vessel the Mayflower, “first encountered” Native Americans in 1620.
Pretty cool, don’t you think?
