The “Carnival was created by the Provincetown Business Guild in 1978 – is Ptown’s original Summer celebration of community, expression, and creativity. (Click on blog link for other photo.)
The weeklong festival attracts tens of thousands of guests from all over the world to enjoy parties, performances, costume contests and the celebrated Carnival parade. This year’s parade will roll down Commercial Street on Thursday, August 22nd,” so join in the fun and visit Provincetown this week and all of the festivities!
The pink Lady’s Slipper wildflowers are blooming here on Cape Cod and are so delicate and pretty. I’ve seen them along the trails on a lot of hikes, as well as in our back yard!
“Pink Lady’s Slipper is a large, showy wildflower belonging to the orchid family. Its flower is magenta to whitish-pink; sometimes the whitish pink flowers will have darker pink venation. This plant grows 6 to 15 inches tall and flowers generally between May and July.”
Have you seen a Lady’s Slipper this year?
