Cape Cod Delight

There is no more peaceful place to wake up than Linda and Steve's house on Cape Cod.  Through open windows you can feel the breezes and hear the early morning sea birds and the sounds of Linda and Steve talking downstairs.

We wished we'd had more time to spend there, but we packed in a great visit with dear friends for two days.  They greeted us with a kabob dinner in their homey dining room, all decorated for a belated birthday party for me and a bag full of presents.  (In the early years of our friendship, Linda and I used to send each other a birthday party in a box, and she did it again, with her generous spirit and choice of wonderful books, calendars, and scents, along with Halloween toys for the kids.)

Then the second day, we got a tour including a sail, and we ended the day with dinner in Chatham and seeing the new Beatles movie in a thirty-seat theater, foregoing the debate.  Mike now loves Cape Cod and the Kots as much as I do!
