The Last Hurahh

The summer is almost over and we were able to get some time at the Cape. As most of you know, Scusett Beach is where we love to spend most of our time. We will be back and forth throughout the last couple of weeks of the month, so if you would like to spend the day relaxing by the canal, and sharing space, come on down. Be sure to call first to make sure that w are there. You know the numbers.

When we come home we will update the blog with all of the details.

It's my hope that you are able to enjoy the remainder of the summer as well...

It's still summer and we are going for all we can! Today we embarked on a week-long vacation at Block Island. We had never been here before, and are pleasantly surprised at the relaxed atmosphere and natural beauty of the island. Of course we had to take a ferry over, but once we got to the island and oriented ourselves as to where we were and had to be, we asked some people at the hotel where we should rent a vehicle. Yup, you probably guessed it... we rented a motorbike and toured the island for a few hours. Kath was a little nervous at first, but we practiced a little before we went out and voila, we were off and riding. (Kath could not get her own bike because they were out today, but there is always tomorrow)! As for what we saw of the island today, lets just saw that it is nothing like what we had expected. What a gorgeous island. Clean, quiet (on the outside of town) and quite picturesque. Jaimie joined us for the day and she enjoyed it as well, even though the island name does not have a foreign country origin. She had her bike and we had ours, we had a ball. After riding around and exploring the island, we stopped at a very busy restaurant in town where we enjoyed lunch (because of the ambiance and the company, not the food. That sucked). The view was beautiful and the temperature today was just perfect for touring. High 70's and sunny. Caught a few rays by the beach before calling it a day. Will update as things change. Chow! -LJg

Back to the Cape and Missing our Partners in Crime

OK, as most of you have figured out, we were at home in the last photo. But, we are on the road again! Yup! Back to the Cape and loving it. We miss not being able to just pick and go to Scusset when we want to. We had become so spoiled over the years we almost forgot to really appreciate what is in our "own back yard."
Well, we got reservations for just a few days, so we were determined to make them count. Our partners in crime that we usually spend time there were not able to get in, so we were all alone and missing their presence! Miss you Willie and Worm!!!!!
Arrived on Sunday afternoon. The weather was absolutely great! Mid 80's and a light off shore breeze. Monday AM we were off to Connecticut to pick up J. She has been away for two months and it was great to have her home. We returned to the Cape later that night to enjoy the next two days of low humidity, mid 80's, and off shore breezes. We enjoyed these days more than I can express in words.
Back home to reality and thought you would appreciate the picture we took of us enjoying our mini-vacation.
Stay tuned for more entries and excitement toward the end of the month.
