We are headed up to Cape Cod for our annual beach trip so postings might be limited over the next week. I’m going to try to post from the beach but we’ll see how the time goes (and if we can get a wireless signal). The cottage we rent has no telephone or —GASP!!!!—TV. We’re lucky it has a bathroom…but, it’s right on the beach so there are absolutely no complaints. This is always a special time of year for us because we get to spend time with the Bergstroms and our Boston friends. Jason has been going to this cottage and beach in Wellfleet, Mass., since he was a wee lad, and this is my 10th trip.
I love that we get to pass this tradition onto Anna – I know it will be special for Jason to show her the ins-and-outs of the jetty, finding oysters, digging up clams and watching the sunset.
One member of the family is not so happy about this year’s trip. Miss Tope usually frolics on the beach but this year Jason isn’t flying from Atlanta. That leaves Poor Miss Tope to hold down the Mableton fort because the thought of shuttling both her and Anna through airport security by myself makes me physically ill. We will miss her but we know she’ll be in good hands.
Have a happy and safe Labor Day! I hope to be lounging on the beach as you read this.
Here are some pictures from previous years…
