While the rest of the country shivered in snow and sub-freezing temps we had a warm and balmy week here along the coast with a "cold snap" that took us all the way down to 47 last night here on the Cape, but by 9:30 we were back up to a sunny 58. The real estate market remains cool, though, with

For Capers, 2008 will be remembered as the Year of Beach Restoration, so it's fitting that the project should be nearing completion as we plan our bonfire-on-the-beach New Year's Eve parties. I stopped at Stumphole this afternoon on the way home from work and got out and shot a few photos of the

Thoughts of shopping fill the air as we draw another week closer to Christmas and Hannukah, and we had a few shoppers decide to pick up a little piece of paradise for some lucky person on their list. Virtually no change in our inventory, standing steady at 378, down one from last week, with 156
