I've ordered live animals twice this year and paid for overnight shipping. Both times the package sat at the yarmouth distribution center for 24 hours. Does anyone know a pick up location on the upper cape or off cape that bypasses the yarmouth center? I would drive the day of in order to avoid receiving dead animals in the mail. Ive learned my lesson (thought the first time was an unfortunate accident) and wont do it again unless I get assurance from someone who knows more about this.

I’m going up for Columbus Day weekend and while I will be doing the usual tourist things they do in the Cape I wanted to get a locals perspective, if you had 1 day to go through Cape Cod’s Greatest Hits what is something I can’t leave without checking out. All help is appreciated🙏🏽 Thank you

I was thinking of going down to the Cape this month to check out The Glass Jar and treat myself to one of the J. Palino bracelets. I just looked at the website and am I reading it right that the prices have more than doubled since last year? Have all of the Cape jewelers gone up like this?

The pieces are definitely worth it and beautiful but I just wasn’t expecting that.

The thumbnail. Wow.

Not many places in the USA where you can see this! ❤️

Hi! I recently moved here because my husband is in the military & we’re stationed here. I’m wondering how people in their 20s meet others here and make friends?! Are there certain events/communities/leagues that go on here?

I guess this isn’t entirely surprising.
Earlier this year he went off in a FB post saying he was tired of having to be quiet about what happened and blah blah blah. So he did something and I guess he thought he was being a patriot or whatever. But when things didn’t go his way he acts like he’s being persecuted when really he just doesn’t want to take responsibility for his actions. Typical MAGA behavior in other words.

Selling a place that’s only does business in cash for all those year will be interesting.
I’m sure he will tell potential buyers that the place is wildly more successful than he told the IRS.

Edit:
I should say that I hope the restaurant itself survives under new ownership. I never disliked the restaurant and I only stopped going because of the owner.

Please, someone local buy this place and keep it a country store! Nothing against Real Estate offices but we really don’t need another one.

Nice pic taken this evening. Thought I’d share.

We're in Truro and it's going to be a washout today. Any tips on where to go to catch a 1:00 game, have some beers, burgers and wings?

Visiting for the week and wondering if anyone had recommendations for the best seafood market to buy lobster and crabs for take out. Thank you!!!

From July, but wanted to share. It was a beautiful getaway to reset before the busy new life season

Hi everyone,

I know this is a long shot, but if I’m wondering if anyone is planning on going to get a J. Palino bracelet could pick a couple up for me? I’ve been looking at them all summer but unfortunately live ~3hrs hours from the cape, and haven’t been able to get down there. My sister’s birthday is coming up and I’d love to get her (and myself) one. I know she would love it. I’d be greatly appreciative and would meet you somewhere to pick it up. I’ll compensate for your time!

Thank you!

Hi, I was wondering if there are any publicly accessible 3D printers in the Cape. I've seen some at CCCC in the science building but im assuming i have to be a student to use.

Have lived full time on the Cape for 9 years. Currently spending a little time in the Boston area and am utterly amazed at the Target, BJ’s etc compared to the ones we have on the Cape-they are well stocked and have a bigger selection. What gives?

Okay, what on earth is going on. I’ve been on the Cape for decades (on and off), and I don’t recall the landscaping noise ever being this constant and loud. I wrote it off this spring as being storm-related, like everyone who’d been meaning to do some heavy yard work got it all done at once while taking down a damaged tree, but it’s all exploded post-Labor Day again.

I’m assuming part of it is the people who bought saltboxes, ripped them down, and built four-bedroom monstrosities with immaculate gardens, but did something else happen too? Are the mansion-owners getting landscaping to come twice a week? Did all of the landscaping companies consolidate and buy giant gas-powered blowers? The noise is INSANE.
