wellfleet mini-vacation

Hi friends, I don’t have any links for you today. None. Zilch. Nada. I spent a few days in Wellfleet on the Cape, finishing up two books and trying to squeeze in a little r&r in there too. There was a trip to the beach, a trip to the lake, a rainy trip to Provincetown where we ate at Canteen (terrific food, you ought to give it a try if you’re in the area!).

And yesterday, after working in my pj’s since five thirty in the morning, I submitted both books about twelve hours later. And then I took a shower and watched Law & Order SVU reruns until Andrew came home. At around eight thirty pm, I put my pj’s back on and read a book on US foreign policy, because this lady here knows how to party. And at nine thirty, it was lights out.

So what, if not links, do I have today? How about some images from the trip? That’s about all I’ve got, and I hope it’s okay with you. I need a good, solid weekend of rest, and I am really hoping that August will be my month of loafing. I’m pretty terrible at doing nothing, but I’d really like to have the opportunity to try.

A couple of places we really like in Wellfleet and Provincetown (this is just a short list):

  • The Canteen – Provincetown – great food all around and super friendly owner + staff! Andrew and I had lobster rolls that were very good.
  • The Nuthouse – Provincetown – serves excellent ice cream by Toscanini including my personal favorite Kulfi flavor.
  • Mac’s Shack – Wellfleet – I know any restaurant that serves x along with sushi is suspect, but Mac’s does it really well. Fresh fish, delicious food, excellent Wellfleet oysters, and great cocktails.
  • Box Lunch – Wellfleet – their John Alden sandwich (turkey, cranberry sauce, etc) is really terrific, along with other fantastic lunch options. Great to grab and head to the beach.
