The beach at Chatham, Cape Cod

We had some raspberry smoothies this morning and then we headed to Cape Cod. Left about 10:30. There is now a four-lane highway most of the length of the Cape. Arrived in Provincetown at about 12:30. Had lunch at the Lobster Hut on Cape Cod Bay. I was here about 25 years ago and remember it as a quaint, charming little town. Now it’s a busy, tacky, touristy nightmare. A real disappointment. We stopped at a beautiful beach before we hit Provincetown though. Beautiful sand doons covered with lush vegetation and beautiful flowers. The whole area is now a Seashore Recreation area and is protected. After leaving Provincetown we dropped down south on Rt. 28 and went through one cute little town after another. They were all established in the mid-1600s. Arrived back at the campground at 7:00.

Happy Father's Day! Made a big breakfast this morning—sausage, eggs, biscuits and juice. Tasted pretty good. We didn’t have that much to eat last night. Another beautiful day. After breakfast we kicked back outside and read for a while. Then came in to watch the US Open. Clouding up and looking like rain. Rooting for Tiger Woods to win the Open, but he came in second. I was a wreck. After dinner we went grocery shopping (sigh). Such fun. A beautiful evening though.
