It won’t be long until someone snatches up this popular bench looking out toward North Beach from Chatham. It doesn’t get much prettier!
Have you ever sat on that bench?

Wow, I LIVE in Chatham and often go briefly park at the Lighthouse to admire the view and I’ve never noticed this bench! I will wait until the summer crowds leave and go sit on it!
Assuming this is in the Lighthouse parking area?
Thanks!

“..,Everything crowds under the low horizon:
Steep beach, blue water, towels, red bathing caps,
The small hushed waves’ repeated fresh collapse
Up the warm yellow sand, and further off
A white steamer stuck in the afternoon—
Yes, that bench is a memorial to my brother. We lost him out there at the point almost 23 years ago. I was also proposed to on it that makes it extra special…Read the plaque on the front…
