New Kayak And Canoe Racks At Hemenway Landing On Cape Cod.

With so many people kayaking Nauset Marsh in the summer, a place was needed a place to store their kayaks. In years past, people would tie their kayaks or canoes up on the shore in the grass. This year they will be able to store them on these new racks that have been put in for their use.

You can see that already a few people havetaken advantage of the racks. I’m sure in the next few weeks we will see them full as we’ve already seen many kayakers out on the marsh already.

Black And White Or Color Cape Cod Photograph?

Phil and I were taking a hike at Fort Hill and both photographed the same tree. When we got home we shared what we had taken. Wow! What a difference! (Click on blog link for other photo.)

Black and white or color? Which one do you like better?

Love This Rock At Fort Hill On Cape Cod!

I have walked by this rock at Fort Hill thousands of times but have never taken a photograph of it from this perspective. I thought it was so pretty looking out onto Nauset Marsh. It is actually a very large rock, well over 6 feet tall.

What do you think? Love the wispy clouds in the sky!

Beautiful Great Egret At Nauset Marsh On Cape Cod.

There were four beautiful Great Egrets on the edge of Nauset Marsh looking for food. It was interesting  watching them as they stalked their prey and then made a dash for the fish.

Such a gorgeous bird, don’t you think? They look so regal as they stand in wait for their next meal to come along.

Indian Rock At Fort Hill On Cape Cod.

It was a beautiful, sunny day at Fort Hill and the light on Indian Rock at Skill Hill at Fort Hill was just beautiful. You can really see the carvings made by the Native Americans. (Click on blog link for other photo.)

Indian Rock was a “community grinding rock, one of four such rocks found in the Nauset area. The Indians used the abrasive qualities of the fine-grained metamorphic rock to grind and polish implements made of stone and animal bones, such as stone axes or bone fishhooks.

Indian Rock was originally located in the mud of the marsh below where it now sits on Skiff Hill. The National Park Service moved the 20-ton boulder to this site in 1965.”
