I didn't mean to be AWOL yesterday, it was just one of those things, you…
Vacation Memories
I love the feeling I always have at the beginning of our vacation on Cape Cod. The week stretches before me and I imagine the ways we will fill our time. Trips to the beach, cocktails on the deck, walks around the neighborhood, special meals in special places we only visit once a year . . . the possibilities are endless and it feels like there will be time for everything.
And then before I know it the week is over and I look back and realize that I didn’t have nearly enough time. Even though I try to savor every moment it still feels like it’s over in a flash. Thankfully I have lots of memories of everything we did and I can enhance those memories by looking at the photographs I took.
Photographs of the beach.
And my family enjoying themselves.
Photographs of delicious drinks and food.
And glorious sunsets.
I think it’s pretty obvious that we had a great week! Sharing my photographs and vacation memories with all of you is something I truly enjoy and I hope you enjoy them, too.
And now for something I don’t enjoy . . . going back to work.

I love the one of Dale between the two girls. And the little guy right above that one! Looks like a great week.
Looks like a flawless week! Love the lobster roll/iced tea colored socks.
Thanks so much for sharing your lovely vacation – I’m glad you had such a nice time.
Here’s to a smooth re-entry!
It’s looks like heaven! And look at those clams!
I too have great plans at the beginning of a vacation and never realize half of them, but it’s all still good. Love the photos esp the sunsets!
Looks wonderful.
It looks like a wonderful time was had by all.
Great time! Welcome back.
Looks pretty darn close to perfect to me! The FOOD! (I miss REAL seafood!)
(((hugs)))
Looks pretty wonderful – those sunset shots are great. Welcome back.
Lobster, clams, sand, waves and cocktails at sunset–plus knitting–wonderful!
Vacations always seem to fly by. I’m glad you had a great one. Welcome home! 🙂
I’m glad you had such a nice vacation! I love looking at your photos; thanks for sharing them.
Your pictures definitely remind me that it’s been far too long since I saw the ocean!
Gorgeous photos. Thanks for sharing your trip with us.
Now I want to go to the beach, too! Just looking at your pictures makes me like I’m there and relaxed.
Wow, if a painter had portrayed a sunset that way you would say he exaggerated. You really got a great photo!
I’ve never been to Cape Cod, and somehow imagined it like the Gulf of Mexico beaches. (It’s not.) Must go see for myself, in the name of “scientific investigation”. VBG!
It’s wonderful you have a special place like this to visit every year!
Looks like such a fun week! You’re right, those special times go by way too fast. I love your sunset photos.
Gorgeous – welcome back!
It looks so wonderful! And that LOBSTA!!!! Want, want, want!!
Wonderful. That’s the kind of vacation I LOVE!
so relaxing 🙂
Thanks for the fabulous vacation pix. Ah, the Cape!
It all looks so lovely, Carole. I’m glad you had such a wonderful time.
Such gorgeous photos, it looks like a fabulous vacation. What a lovely family 🙂
The seafood looks so yummy, but I *really* like the Sunset Socks!
Oh, how wonderful! Great views, happy people, good food. Could it get any better? 🙂
Oh, wow! That looked like fun, and tasty. Thanks for the picts!
I love that time-stretching-before-us feeling too. It was in the “that was way too short” phase that we finally decided six or seven years ago to go to Rangeley for two weeks. That turns out to be still too short, but it will have to do.
Beautiful pics! Looks like you had a wonderful time!
Can you email the rest of the pics to me? gracias!
what a great bunch of photos. it looks like your vacation was delightful. And yeah, the good ones just seem to fly by, don’t they.
Those are all great pictures. Thanks for sharing them.
I’m going in September–can’t wait!
Oh, Carole, it looks like you all had a lovely time. I’m so glad… still a little jealous, tho. *L*
xo
Great photos…and such beautiful sunsets…thanks for sharing…
Wow! Thanks for sharing. What a beautiful family and place to enjoy.
Those sunsets are gorgeous.
Oh what lovely photos! I feel as if I were there with you all at least in spirit. I believe you have captured the vacation “feel” with your pictures and now you can look at the pictures and relive experiences whenever you choose to. Thanks for your great vacation moments.
I most definitely enjoy seeing your vacation photos. Not the food and drink ones though. It’s hard to get the drool off my keyboard. 😉
Gorgeous pics Carole – you have such a beautiful family!
Next year, can you please find a place that delivers one of those lobster rolls to Florida? PLEASE? 🙂
Carole, it looks like it was the best time evah!! Lots of good food and drink and time well spent with loved ones 🙂
Mmmmmm, Heavenly! I’m envious!!
Great shots!
I spy with my little eye a *very* pretty sock! 🙂
(And what looks like the makings of an absolutely killer lobster roll…)
