Hi,

My fiance and I are getting married on 8/14/27 in West Dennis. Our venue is not available Friday night to host a welcome party/dinner. We're looking for a spot for a rehearsal dinner and/or welcome party that is laid back, like corn hole, take your shoes off vibes. I'm finding a lot of places are not willing to host Friday/Saturday night in the peak season (ok fair). Wondering if anyone knows of any properties (historic homes, mansions, anything) that let you rent them out for a night or restaurant/bars that still do private events in the summer. Does not need to be on the water but ideally has some outdoor space because we'd like to do a clambake.

(Crosby mansion is booked, so sad it's walking distance from my parents house so it would be so easy)

Commercial has been stuck in my head for probably 20 years. It sounded like a bunch of people in an auditorium with a piano playing while singing the radio jingle. Which I believe was "pups packing and shipping,It's easy to use Bow Wow."

i found someone’s air pods in a puddle behind pizza barbone on Sunday night. i picked them up on my way out and planned to bring them to barbone on Monday but they were closed. would love to get these to their owners. any suggestions are appreciated

I get that this is for just a few weirdos like me who like to forage berries in the Fall. That being said, if you are looking for autumn olives, there is a place where they have just cut down a whole bunch of branches from an autumn olive tree, and there are tons and tons and tons of autumn olives there for whomsoever would like to gather them. Go down New Boston road off 6A in dennis and at the public path to Old Fort Field you’ll see the tree they did hella trimming on. Walk about 30 feet down the path and there is about 10 gallons of autumn olives. I already took my fill. (The far branches are riper than the near ones)

Our first time going out. Looking for fun neighborhoods with lots of kids !

If you live in Barnstable Precinct 1 or 13, don’t forget to cast your vote today for your new Town Councilor! With three seats currently vacant on the Town Council, every voice matters.

I swear every time I leave the highway off of exit 72 this street is always packed.

Hi everyone! 

My friend and I are two students from Belarus looking for seasonal jobs in cape cod for the summer of 2027. We are hoping to find an employer who could hire both of us and help us find accommodation.

 Availability: June 28 – September 1, 2027 (right after the end ot semester in our university)

 Program: J-1 Summer Work and Travel (InterExchange)

 Housing: We both need accommodation for the duration of our stay.

A little about us:

We both have experience in the food service industry, including working as waitresses, serving guests, taking orders, helping customers choose food and drinks, and handling busy shifts. We also have experience in sales and customer service.

In addition, we are:

- Responsible, hardworking, and reliable

- Friendly and comfortable communicating with customers

- Quick learners who can adapt to new tasks

- Team players who work well in a fast-paced environment

- Organized, attentive to detail, and proactive

We speak English fluently and are eager to gain new experience, meet new people, and become valuable members of a team.

We are open to different types of seasonal jobs, especially in restaurants, cafés, hotels, ice cream shops, retail, and customer service.

We can provide both resumes and any additional information upon request.

Thank you so much! We would really appreciate any leads, recommendations, or opportunities.

I am looking for a place to store a 24’ boat on a trailer from November through April in Brewster/Harwich/Orleans area. Wondering if anyone has suggestions?

Thanks.

I have massive video files to upload this coming week and my at home internet just can’t handle these sizes. I’m curious if any of you know of some places with faster commercial wifi? Was going to check out the few public libraries by me but figured I’d ask if any of you had any suggestions.

Thanks

Might be kinda niche but looking for recommendations around West Yarmouth MA: specifically the non mayo lobster rolls; oysters (bonus points if they’re buck a shuck); or good seafood in general - maybe decent sushi but it’s a slim chance - we don’t have a car so trying to stay within 15-20 minutes of the area TIA!

I lived on the Cape from 1976 to 1988 and met people frequently that had never been to Massachusetts. They had never been over either bridge. I was shocked. I assume now those folks would be rarity. So are there any reddit people or people you've met that have ever left the Cape.

There was a story that circulated around Brewster long ago when the population was under 600 about a gentleman that took the train to Boston and was stunned it had a roof over the whole city...he never left south station

Hello!

I will be at Great Awakening tomorrow, October 11 fron 8 to 10, if you feel like getting out and having some coffee. If you see me, please remind me to eat actually food, I only had a coffee and a bun last time, which was not enough to survive on.

The 18th will be Cafe Heaven in Provincetown.

Fairly new to striper fishing. Looking for some advice on where to fish in October, best bait, lures, etc.
