Cape Cod

Two weeks ago I got in a plane with my sweetie and flew to Boston to pick up my Roomie For Life and drive to Cape Cod, where said sweetie's fam has a really lovely house sitting 20 feet from the ocean. My other former roomie/sister-who-isn't-actually-related-to-me tried her damndest to meet us there but her car decided to fail two hours away. Luckily Colin's got a cousin right over there who Elise was able to stay with, and then C and his mom went to pick her up the next day. Anyway, what I'm trying to get to is: I took some pictures, and because it's so beautiful there, some of the pictures happen to be quite pretty as well. Here are some of my faves from the weekend. First, the cast of characters:

Ella a.k.a Roomie For Life (though we haven't lived together for 2 years)

Elise! with the car that keeps breaking

Ollie (Elise's dog), me, and Colin

Colin's dad (Charlie)

I didn't get a picture of Colin's mom, for no good reason other than I'm a huge bum.


Summary of weekend activities:

Sailing. No pictures of that, obviously. The boat is tiny and everyone gets wet. Cameras do not do so well when they get wet.

Sitting on the porch. Duh.

Playing croquet. I'm pretty sure this is mandatory if you vacation on Cape Cod.

Making pie. And eating it. With ice cream.

Eating potato chips. When on Cape Cod, one must personally consume at least half a bag of Cape Cod potato chips. This is definitely written into the local statutes.

Going to the BEACH.

Aaaaand pretty sunsets.
