Full of Wind

In my previous post, I mentioned the cool winds coming off the shore at Cape Cod. Below is some video of Herring Cove Beach and the sand dunes and the grasses that grow naturally there. Look real hard and you just might see some wild cranberry off in the distance. This is what much of the eastern seaboard of our country would look like, had it not been overrun by development.

And forget what you learned in your awful grade school history book. The pilgrims didn't land at Plymouth first. They landed here, on the tip of Cape Cod.

Shame they didn't stay. Those breezes are pretty nice.

Thank God for conservationists.
