First Encounter Beach is in Eastham on Cape Cod Bay. You wouldn’t think that the dunes on the bayside would have that much erosion. (Click on blog link to see other photo.)

The high tides and rough seas have eaten away at these dunes the past few years, showing just how precariously close to the edge this house is. As you can see in the photograph at low tide, truckloads of huge boulders were brought in to keep the water away from the dunes.

Wow! It makes you wonder how long the houses near the edge will be able to withstand Mother Nature’s assault…
