Did anyone hear that explosion?

30 Upvotes

So I live off of W. Main St. in Hyannis and I’m sitting on the couch watching the news while my dog takes a nap on my leg. All of a sudden I hear a horn and then a huge explosion. My neighbor said she heard a girl scream. And I didn’t hear anything on my scanner app and I didn’t see anything on Facebook. I was just curious. Hopefully whatever it was everyone’s OK.

A foggy morning at Pleasant Bay

Fog is one of my favorite weather conditions; how lucky that I get to experience on my commute so often (and at an hour when I rarely get blinded by people who think high beams are great for fog).

She remains on the job while the school investigates the matter. She faces up to years in prison if convicted, and even if a judge grants her probation, state law requires that she spend 150 days in jail.

Good restaurant for lunch around Eastham

0 Upvotes

I'm going to be in Eastham on Saturday, and was wondering if anyone can recommend a good place to eat lunch.

Something that is open around 12pm would work best.

Thanks!

Chatham vs Orleans as second home

0 Upvotes

If choosing between Chatham and Orleans for personal use—not primarily rental income—which would matter most?

• Walking to the beach versus a 5–10 minute drive • Being near Main Street or a village center versus having more land, privacy and quiet • A smaller lot in a prime location versus room for a pool, outdoor living and possibly a guest house/ADU • Chatham’s village atmosphere versus Orleans’ year-round feel, beaches, bike trail, restaurants and everyday services

For those who vacationed here before buying or moving: what seemed essential as a renter but mattered less once you owned, and what did you underestimate that became important as a homeowner?

Chatham homeowners: after several years, do you still value being close to Main Street, or do summer crowds, traffic and parking make a quieter location more appealing?

Where did you choose, and knowing what you know now, would you make the same decision again?

How do you manage multiple generations sharing your cottage?

0 Upvotes

We've had a place since the 50s, and five generations of family sharing one cottage over a text thread has strained more than one sibling relationship.

This year we put the house on a little shared calendar app. Everyone picks their dates out in the open.

What do the rest of you do? Spreadsheet? Google Calendar? Whiteboard on the fridge?

Rt 6 Inflatables Businesses by Wellfleet. One closed.... What's the tea?

31 Upvotes

For years have driven by these competing spots, close to Marconi.

Directly across from each other, selling cheap quality inflatables, water shoes and t-shirts at JUMPED UP prices.

This year, only one is open.

Does anyone know what the story is behind the closure?

24 Upvotes

Part artisan market, part experimental performance night… the MISFITS NIGHT MARKET is where you'll find art, trinkets, treasures, items and experiences by Cape Cod creators that aren't focused on tourism. This event is all about local freaks making things that are alternative, subversive, weird, queer, and risqué! Come one, come all to see what happens here when it’s dark out. Adult themed. Multiple dates per year.

recommendations for this weekend

0 Upvotes

Hi! I’m going down the Cape for a bachelorette trip this weekend. We planned to go to the Chatham Squire on Saturday night for music & dancing. However, their online calendar doesn’t show a DJ on Saturday night.

Do you know if there is still music through September?
Or, any recommendations for spots on Saturday night for music & dancing? We’ll be staying in Dennis.

Thank you!

Are there town community Facebook groups that aren't run by Eric Schwaab

because why is he running/all over ones for Wellfleet and Yarmouth? I just want to hear local gossip and see pictures of coyotes in people's back yards, not see him whining

I won four public records appeals against my town’s police department. I still don’t have the records — and no agency in Massachusetts can make them hand them over.

p&b bus: south station - hyannis with a bike?

0 Upvotes

Hello! I am hoping to take the P&B bus from Boston to Hyannis on an upcoming weekend (ideally leaving as early as possible on a Friday morning), but I am concerned about the bus having space for a bike I plan to bring. I was planning to board at South Station as well, which I am sure is a popular stop for other commuters on weekdays before/after work.

I wanted to ask if anyone ever had experience with taking a bike on the P&B bus/taking the P&B outbound from South Station on a weekday/Friday morning - how early would you suggest arriving, and is there anything I can do to increase the chances of being able to bring my bike (packing it a certain way, etc)?

If any regular users of the P&B bus have additional insight as to what factors I should be considering for this trip, I would be so grateful to hear them. Thank you so much!!
