We are up in Cape Cod with my in-laws for the week. It's my first time and so far it's just perfect. Our little cottage is 2 houses in from the beach. The water is warm and very calm so Lil Pip and I are swimming around like mermaids. When we arrived on Saturday night we took a walk down to the beach at sunset and she waded in so deep her dress got wet. Five minutes later she was duck diving waves. It was like witnessing a communion with the sea. Baptism? Whatever. You get the idea.

| My grandmother had a tree growing in her front yard covered in trumpet vine. Every day she'd sweep the fallen flowers off the walk. |
 |
| Driveways paved with shells. |
 |
| Hydrangeas! Check. |
 |
| Privet hedge! My favorite summer smell. |
 |
| Every house has cedar shingles. Why doesn't every town do this? There are no ugly houses. |
 |
| Wildflowers by the side of the road. |
