Harwich Port, Cape Cod

---

Again this summer my friend Sandy opened her Cape house in Harwichport to Karen and I for a week. It’s in a great location near the center of town and a few steps from the beach. Being July on Cape Cod everywhere you look blue hydrangeas are lush and in bloom. We might not like the rain much but plants are loving all the rain. As with most of the lost summer of 2009 we had one good day out of five. Wednesday was a beautiful beach day, we walked the few hundred feet from the house to the beach and got some rare sun and into our summer reads. My brother John stopped by and the two of us drove over to the A&W on route 28 in his MGB for the weekly Cruise Night. Later we walked around downtown Harwichport for the Musical Stroll. Five bands with different musical styles played along Route 28 through the village as folks walked from band to band listening to the music. The rest of the week we avoided the raindrops, hanging out at the library, reading, and playing cribbage, Thursday the girls, Maya and Max showed up we had a fun night at Rooney’s restaurant, after dinner we teamed up and were winners in their weekly trivia contest. Rainy nights can still be fun. Maybe next week we’ll have some summer.
