Good morning, it is a chilly 17 degrees but the snow stopped in time for our first in the nation presidential primary. I was lucky enough to see a few of the candidates in town meetings and rallies.
Today’s post features three ecosystems in Cape Cod.

For the last several summers at the Cape we have gone on a whale watch aboard the Dolphin Fleet out of Provincetown. We travel out to the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary and have always seen at least a few whales. It is just enough for me to be on the water and seeing the interplay of light, sky and water.

Brrrr, 16 degrees (-9 C) outside. Many of you have to dig out of snow drifts this morning Surprisingly here in New Hampshire I see bare ground in the back yard which is fine with me.
The photo theme for today is #BeachSunday and I’m including some photos from 2013. In just 6 months all that snow will be gone and you’ll be on a beach somewhere.

Good Morning, it’s a chilly 37(F) degrees outside. I may already be tired of winter and it hasn’t even arrived. I’ll post a photo taken in warmer days.
I’ve been experimenting with various WordPress blogging themes which give this page its appearance. Themes are style sheets that control the layout of the menus and sidebars. Since this is primarily a photo blog, I was looking for the best way to display images, however I also wanted the functionality of the sidebars. It’s impossible to do both with limited real-estate.
However today I discovered that I enable to image to link to its hosting location which will show the original image. In this photo the image lives in the Google Cloud. So what does this mean to you dear reader.
Simple, if you want to see a larger version of a photo simply click on it.
I’ve only done this with only a couple of photos but will eventually retrofit more. I’ve added a white border around the enabled photos to indicated that they are linked.Try it and let me know what you think.
…. and stay warm, think summer.

After folks get off the shuttle and head to the beach, I wonder how many take a look at the plants that line the path. The environment is harsh, pure sand, intense sunlight and salt spray. Not exactly the best environment for plant life.

We had a family reunion at the Cape this year with folks traveling from North Carolina, Maryland, Texas and New Hampshire. My cousins told me that they were renting a house with a 9-11 memorial rock garden. The owners had a connection with a victim of American Airlines Flight 11 but it was not clear who that was. I visited and took a few photos.

Come listen all unto my song;
It is no silly fable
‘Tis all about the mighty cord
They call the Atlantic cable.
Bold Cyrus Field, he said, said he,
I have a pretty notion
That I can run a telegraph
Across the Atlantic Ocean
Segment of a poem by John Q. Sax which appeared in Harpers Weekly, September 11, 1858, after the laying of the first Atlantic Cable.

The Marine Mammal Protection Act was enacted on October 21, 1972. It has been a success. Years ago it was a rare to see even a single seal and now so many. Of course they also attract a few Great White Sharks. I saw plenty of Grey Seals but NO sharks.
