CapeScapes - Be Careful What You Wish For

Beach Treat
Just make an offer and surely we'll pick the 90-degree beach day with no wind and cloudless blue skies. Well, come on! Isn't it a no-brainer, if the other option brings strong winds, temps in the 70's and occasional sun? BEEP. Wrong. We're here to tell you,
"Choose the latter!"

Wednesday, a throwback to August daze days, was crystal clear. Problem was that infamous Cape Cod sandflies thought it perfect, too. Minus a hazmat suit, the only way to avoid clusters of them on our ankles was to walk and keep on walkin', 'cause they're too slow-flying to keep up with even a moderate pace. But they wait - patiently - for the moment you sink back into your sand chair.
Beware!
Wind Shield but No Flies!
Ah, but Thursday? Perfect. Nothing a windshield or car body couldn't help. Brilliant sweatshirt weather. And no flies. We'll take it.
Beach Beauty
Don't ya just love Mother Nature? One just never knows what she'll dish. Today? G-d's moving furniture. It seems we'll be experiencing some Cape-style boomers. We'll take that, too. Have we a choice?? Still, always there's beauty to be found. 
We'll Take It!
Even a sunset into the clouds can be brilliant. It's a mixed bag, on the beach.
Here's to surf, sand 'n' glorious sunsets.
