Fun on the Cape

I can't believe summer is almost over but at least I had a great Labor Day weekend to finish it off! I went down to Cape Cod for the 3 days and the weather could not have been better...

We spent Saturday at Ridgevale beach in Chatham. Thankfully, we did not see any great white sharks... just plenty of seagulls:




Back at the condo, I had a little photo shoot with my favorite puppy. I take WAY too many pictures of my parents' dog, Bijou (he is actually 10 years old but still a puppy at heart). Thus far, I've tried not to post them on the blog but this one was just too cute! Bijou probably couldn't fetch if his life depended on it and is usually quite indifferent to his tennis ball but I love how he is acting all possessive here.


I headed to Yarmouth on Sunday to visit with some more family. My Aunt Sheila is a true Codder (hah!) and loves to go clamming. We ate some of her freshly gathered steamers for lunch:




My cousin, Lisa, modeled for me while I tried to capture some serious sunflare. Yes, I am aware of the blue pentagon covering her face... my Photoshop skills aren't quite developed enough to edit that out but I will keep trying!


My dad and I kayaked around the Big and Little Cliff Ponds in Nickerson State Park on Monday:


We semi-stalked this heron and got some great pictures. That is the awesome thing about approaching wildlife in a kayak - you can be so quiet! You can see the fish in his mouth in this one:


"GULP!" If you'd like to know why his eye looks cloudy in the above picture but not in this one, check this out.
