In this picture, we are windblown and hot from a summer's day on Cape Cod. The land behind us is the very tip of Cape Cod, Provincetown and the very place the Mayflower stopped to let the Pilgrims on land after their long voyage. They went on to Plymouth before settling their new digs.
A couple days after our visit, Cher hosted a fund raiser for Hillary here. A Cher and Hillary siting would have made a great story!
I have other pictures of the town, plus some absolutely lovely pics of Cape Cod seashore for later. As well as stories about our adventure.
At the above moment, we stood for a long time looking at the beach scene in front of us, and watching walkers in the sunset...
These women obviously walk this beach often as the two dogs were friends and explored the beach together. A lab and a poodle.
I had a lab and a poodle who loved labs. (They never got to meet)
I watched them all the way down the beach and back. Darting amid boats beached at low tide, checking out critters together, running ahead, looking back at their people, then coming back to touch their peeps' legs with wet noses.
Buddies.
Little bit there had a bandage on his tiny poodle foot.
I saw this in town, and it made me laugh. It's a town full of happy dogs and people busy being unique and free. Humor is encouraged here.
It is an Apache Blessing, and it says:
May the sun bring you new energy by day
May the moon softly restore you by night
May the rain wash away your worries
May the breezes blow new strength into your being
May you walk gently through the world and know it's beauty all the days of your life
More to come... LeeAnna

ReplyDeleteWhat fun!! We took our first beach trip this weekend.
ReplyDeleteI love the Cape! How fun that you were able to spend some time there.
ReplyDeleteI like the blessing. Looks like a great time.
ReplyDeleteI love beach vacations but my red-headed husband doesn't. So I mostly enjoy other people's beach vacation stories. Cape Cod is definitely on my bucket list. Someday! Looks like you had a relaxing time.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a lovely trip. I'm sure the poodle and lab were a happy site to see. Love the blessing!
ReplyDeleteGood to see you smile :) Your posts make me want to come to the east coast!
ReplyDeleteHi LeeAnna,
ReplyDeleteYes please, more about Cape Cod!
Love the Apache blessing!
Might have to create something here for in the garden!
Take care,
Joanne

ReplyDeleteWe all need to keep the Apache blessing in mind. May it bring you peace.
ReplyDeleteL❤️Ve hearing about your trip. So wonderful that you were blessed to get a picture with a lab and a poodle at the same time ��
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you are vacationing and enjoying life again! It sounds divine!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a very cool trip. Not having been to the cape, I thank you for sharing your adventures and imagine it was your fur angels that 'guided' you toward that beach to capture the image of the Lab and poodle. So sweet, so tender. ღ
