I Saw My First Daffodil In Orleans On Cape Cod Today!

I was so shocked when I saw a little patch of pretty yellow Daffodils growing in someone’s yard by the side of the road in Orleans on Cape Cod. It seems so early. It’s only February.

So, I turned the car around, stopped and jumped out and took a photograph of this pretty spring flower. What  treat!

Last weekend the wind chill was minus 28 here so the last thing I thought I’d see so soon was a spring flower.

Has anyone else seen any spring flowers?

It doesn’t get much better…

It was a beautiful day to take a walk  on Nauset Beach in Orleans on Cape Cod. It was warm and the sun was out and there wasn’t too much wind.

I saw this little Sanderling hanging out with the big Seagulls running back and forth between the waves as they came to shore.

I just loved the photograph. What do you think?

Fat-Tire Beach Biking Looks Like Great Fun On Cape Cod

I’ve seen a few of these fat-tire beach bikes on the beaches here on Cape Cod this winter. The tires are huge so that people can ride them in the sand. It looks like great fun and great exercise. And they can go pretty far!

I have no idea if it legal in the summer time, but it sure looks like fun off-season.
