Here comes the Big Weekend!!!! woot woot

Let's see upcoming events for this weekend......hmmmm.... The Cape Cod Bay Challenge!!! departing Plymouth Long Beach paddling at 5:00am and arriving in Wellfleet (34 miles away!!) some 10 hrs later. These folks are dedicated, this isn't something that you wake up one morning and say "I think I'll paddle to Wellfleet!" they train for many months. The reason behind this event is to raise awareness and money for Christopher's Haven in Boston. CH is a place for families to stay when their child is stricken with cancer and need treatment from Mass General Hospital. This year there are 75 paddlers going across. Good luck to all!!!

The 144th Annual Marshfield Fair kicks off Friday and will continue through August 28. They have a demolition derby, motorcross, truck pulling, 4H shows, music, just way too many things to list here, go to www.marshfieldfair.org enjoy!!!

Enjoy your weekend!!!!

What a Beautiful Time of Year!

What an absolutely fabulous day! It's bright, sunny, warm, a few scattered puffy clouds in the sky just a fantastic day. After work beach here I come!

One of the nice things about Summer is all the fresh vegies available. Which reminds me of a New England tradition; the Farmers Market. In Plymouth they are held Thursdays at Stephen's Field and Saturdays in Downtown Plymouth, if you can't make it on Thursdays and Saturdays go to www.farmfresh.org for a list of towns nearby.

Some of the fun things to do in Plymouth on these beautiful days if your not at the beach:

Pirate Cruises for the young ones go out twice daily from the wharf, this cruise is appropriate for kids ages 4-11yrs old, check out the website; www.plymouthcruises.com.
For the older crowd aboard the Pilgrim Belle are dinner cruises on Wednesday nights, reservations required or harbor cruises daily. the website; www.plymouthharborcruises.com.

Check back occasionally as I will give you other ideas to fill your days here in Plymouth.
Thanks for reading, and have a sunny day!
