The Nauset Marsh Trail in Eastham is one of our favorite trails and we hike it frequently. Yesterday we had a big treat as we got to the overlook and said, “Wow!” (Click on blog link for other photo.)
Someone had been very busy clearing away the trees and brush and the results were stunning! Thank you, Cape Cod National Seashore, for all of your hard work! What gorgeous panoramic views of such a pristine place!
Color or black and white… which do you like better?
I had never been to Longnook Beach, or even heard of it, until I read a post about it a couple of weeks ago. We decided to go and find it. Looking down from the high dunes, it is a gorgeous beach. Wow! (Click on blog link for other photos.)
There are cement barriers that block cars from entering the parking lot. It makes sense since the beach is no longer accessible because erosion has made the dunes much too steep.
You can see from the sign driving in that the beach is closed.
It was so foggy yesterday morning that it was hard to even see Nauset Marsh. And then this little Flicker stopped by. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
It was pecking around for a long while on the ground and then flew up to the fence. Why not try to make lemonade out of lemons on a foggy morning?
I opened my window and clicked away. What do you think?
It was a beautiful, sunny day at Fort Hill and the light on Indian Rock at Skill Hill at Fort Hill was just beautiful. You can really see the carvings in the rock made by the Native Americans.
Indian Rock was a “community grinding rock, one of four such rocks found in the Nauset area. The Indians used the abrasive qualities of the fine-grained metamorphic rock to grind and polish implements made of stone and animal bones, such as stone axes or bone fishhooks.
Indian Rock was originally located in the mud of the marsh below where it now sits on Skiff Hill. The National Park Service moved the 20-ton boulder to this site in 1965.”
