Part of the innkeeper experience is the opportunity to meet interesting people. Our Liberty Coin guests this weekend are dairy farmers from Vermont's Champlain Valley. I have enjoyed sitting with them at breakfast, chatting about this and that. I had no idea how hard it is for dairy farmers to get away on vacation, for example.
Our guests had originally hoped to go deep-sea fishing this afternoon but decided to do other things instead once here, having quickly understood how very many options the Outer Cape offers for spectacular contact with nature: Marconi, the Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary, the Provincelands area of the National Seashore. Three days is hardly enough to fit everything in. Over breakfast this morning, I described Ruthie's Boutique in P-town, the ultimate thrift-shop experience, and the composting toilets at Mass Audubon. Yesterday they stood on the platform at Marconi, where it is possible to see both coasts, and noticed the remnants of what may have once been the Marconi Station, uncovered by the tide. Sven and I happened to walk the beach at LeCount Hollow yesterday, and I took a photo of this unusual sight. I love to record the little marvels as well, like bubbles of foam which sparkled in the afternoon sunshine at low tide. So beautiful! 
Logging you in...
