The weather was gorgeous the other day so we thought it would be nice to take a hike on one of our favorite trails. Little did we know that everyone else thought the same thing. With everyone home from work and kids home from school, the trails were crowded.
We decided it would be better to take a nice walk along Cape Cod Bay. It was gorgeous! What do you think?
I had never seen this bench before on one of the trails that leads down to Coast Guard Beach. Probably because I always take the other trail. This was such a surprise and so pretty.
First Encounter Beach is in Eastham on Cape Cod Bay. You wouldn’t think that the dunes on the bayside would have that much erosion. (Click on blog link to see other photo.)
The high tides and rough seas have eaten away at these dunes the past few years, showing just how precariously close to the edge this house is. As you can see in the photograph at low tide, truckloads of huge boulders were brought in to keep the water away from the dunes.
Wow! It makes you wonder how long the houses near the edge will be able to withstand Mother Nature’s assault…
