Love the seagulls on the beaches here on Cape Cod! This guy was enjoying the beautiful weather on Coast Guard Beach, part of the National Seashore, and the waves in the background.

The Clouds Were Coming In At The Salt Pond In Eastham On Cape Cod
Mysterious Animal On The Boardwalk At Fort Hill On Cape Cod
It was a cloudy, cold day and I decided to take a morning walk at Fort Hill before the rain started. Phil was home with a bad cold, so I was solo. I thought Red Maple Swamp Trail would be fun as it is in the woods and somewhat protected.
About 1/2 in on the boardwalk, I noticed some water and water tracks on the side of the boardwalk which then went down the middle of the boardwalk. Hmmm… I wonder what it was! The only animal I could think of was a Muskrat, but it would have to be a pretty big one.
As I walked along, I saw the same kind of tracks a little ways down, but this was in a much dryer area.
Next time I go to the Visitor’s Center, I will be sure to inquire as to what animal might like the swamp waters at Fort Hill. Anyone have any ideas?
Orleans On Cape Cod Is Beach-Themed For The Holidays
I always love to see how the different towns decorate this time of year for the holidays. I thought that Orleans had some of the cutest decorations with the colorful buoys and greens in the wooden box with a little sign that says, “Shop Local,” which is so important for businesses around here.
Cute, don’t you think? And just perfect for this popular beach town, home of Nauset Beach.
