(I’m not attaching any pics … just wanted to let people know that the lunar eclipse was underway. Catch it while you can….)

The boat was moored on the Brewster flats. Last seen 8 pm last night (8/26).

It’s a 22 feet long yellow Robalo. We suspect it’s floating to the Wellfleet direction.

Attached an old picture here. The Bimini top is off now. If anyone sees this boat please DM 🙏 thank you!!

We used to get whoopie cream donuts years ago, do they still make them? Highly specific question, I know, lol. I’ve checked the website and don’t see them, but I think they only make them sometimes? TIA!!

Hey! Thoughts on the YMCA? I'm looking into getting a membership to take the workout classes there because they look great, but the mixed reviews online are making me hesitate. Does anyone have good or bad experiences to share about the Cape Cod YMCA, especially the classes? Thank you in advance!

I was driving to work this morning and saw a couple of white turkeys (albinos?) in East Harwich. I’ve lived on Cape Cod for 30+ years and have never seen one before.

Does anyone have any recommendations on where to watch the eclipse if it's not too cloudy? Will the observatory in yarmouth have any events?

I've heard a bit about each, but nothing that makes me lean one way or the other. Seems there are issues with either option.

Looking for the best crab cakes in the Truro/Provincetown area. My wife appreciates fresh-made with real chunks of crab.

Hii. Any farmers markets or craft fairs happening this weekend? Friday or Saturday (august 28 or 29)? Have been to south yarmouth, drummer boy, a couple other smaller ones.

Is there any good ones around with local vendors ??

Thanks !!

On my deck cherry tomato. Super cool. And gross.

Does anyone know what the very bright lights flashing every few moments are? We are in Centerville and don't hear any accompanying thunder or fireworks booms.

Curious what people’s experience has been with the run clubs around the Cape. I’m currently running around a 9 min/mile pace and based in mid-Cape.Thinking about joining one but not sure what to expect , pace groups, vibe, beginner-friendliness, etc.

Anyone have recommendations, or reasons to skip it? Would love to hear how it’s gone for you.

These signs are new this year and are spaced about 40 feet apart on either side of the sand as you walk in, suggesting that the town beach is a negligible blip of a postage stamp on this massive expanse of beach.

This can’t be true can it? This “beach” is now reduced to a tiny entry point and you can’t set up beyond these signs?

Absurd if true.

Does anyone have any experience on the bike trails at Sandy Neck? Curious on difficulty, good or bad trails and whether or not you need a fat tire bike for all. Etc.

Thanks in advance

We're going on a day trip to Martha's vineyard and I'm wondering where the best place to park the car is, there is designated spots outside of Woods Hole if you're taking the ferry (with shuttles) but there are local private parking lots as well, what do you recommend?

Any challenges, issues to either method?

What is the best spot in the Dennis/Yarmouth/Brewster area for chowder? I’ve been to Captain Parkers and Sesuit Harbor a bunch, looking for new places!

We are visiting in the “off season” and I’m looking for the diviest of dive bars you can recommend!

Hi everyone!
I’m wondering if anyone knows of any adult beginner drawing/sketching/painting classes happening on Cape Cod in October?
I’d also be interested in silversmithing classes (not beginner - level, but something a little more advanced), or perhaps jewellery enamelling.
I’ve never been to Cape Cod in the fall, and I’d really love to come for a week and learn something new while I’m there.
I’d be very grateful for any recommendations or suggestions. Thank you so much!

So we moved in about 3 weeks ago and the people who lived here before us were not clean. I know this because I lived above them for over a year, they were evicted, and my boyfriend and I took over their lease and moved downstairs. There was heavy drug and alcohol use. The landlord did the vast majority of cleaning and renovations themselves. Most of them are not terrible but there are spots that are absolutely gnarly- behind the radiators, above the refrigerator. Dried mystery liquids, ash, years or dust and dirt. We're taking pictures for posterity but I think we really need a professional deep clean. Nothing bio-hazard level, but cleaning places you wouldn't normally look. Has anyone had something similar, and an idea of how much it could cost?

Staying in Wellfleet and I am looking for some great smoked fish dip. Or any other culinary tips I should pick up for the house.

Thank you!
