Phil and I were taking a walk on the beach on Christmas Day when we looked up in the sky and we saw the sun with distinct spots on either side of it.
In posting it on our Enjoying Cape Cod Facebook page, one of our friends wrote and told us they were Sundogs. These Sundogs are also known as mock suns or “parhelia”, with a pair of brightly colored spots, one on either side of the sun.
Very cool, don’t you think? Have you ever seen a Sundog?
I had to resurrect this photograph of an Advent Calendar that I made for my 3 granddaughters a few years ago.
I had such fun creating and planning all of the little ornaments, each one having its own meaning to the girls. And they look forward to putting their ornaments on the tree day by day during the month of December.
I love it because it is timeless… and a treasure for them to look forward to year after year.
Mery Christmas to you all!
Cape Cod is known for its plentiful cranberry bogs. Bogs are an area of soft, marshy ground with acid peat soil, usually near wetlands, where the cranberries grow on long-running vines.
We happend to see this sign for Ocean Spray Cranberries and stopped to take this photograph of the bogs in the background.
Have you ever seen a cranberry bog?
