You can hike to the Cranberry Bog House on the Pamet Cranberry Bog Trail in Truro. It’s a beautiful hike and it’s fun to see the old bog house. (Click on blog link for other photos.)

“The historic Cranberry Bog House Truro is a remnant of a once-thriving commercial cranberry bog operated by the Pamet Cranberry Company in Truro from the late 19th century until the 1950s. Originally built around 1830, the Bog House was moved and raised in 1880 to serve as a two-story preparation and living space for workers during harvest season.

The lower level was for preparing cranberries for shipment, while the upper floor provided living quarters, often for migrant workers, including many from Cape Verde. The bog was flooded and drained seasonally, and while the bogs have since returned to a natural state, the house remains a testament to this history.

Interesting tidbit: If you look closely, you can see the front door is on the 2nd level!

As we headed out on the trail at Fort Hill yesterday morning, we could see so many birds flitting from tree to tree. They’d stop for a moment and then move on. (Click on blog link for other photos.)

As we got closer, we could see that they were all Eastern Bluebirds and there were at least 75 of them. Wow! What a treat! It’s the most  Bluebirds I’d seen together in a very long time. They were just beautiful!

Have you seen all the Bluebirds at Fort Hill?

I love driving out on MacMillan Pier and seeing all there is to see… and, I love the drive back looking toward Commercial Street and the library and all of the boats. This was such a pretty day. Look at those puffy little clouds…they look like mini-cotton balls!

This is the perfect commemoration of Veteran’s Day with an American flag made of clam shells from Cape Cod beaches… painted red, white and blue.

There is a little sign nearby that says that this flag has been there since 1976 which is 49 years. Wow! It always looks like it is brand new.

Happy Veteran’s  Day to you all and especially those who have served in the U.S. military!  This is your special day. Thank you for your service.
