video: 5 fun things to do in cape cod & the smallest saltwater fish?

Do you like the beach and lighthouses? Well, have you ever been to Cape Cod or thinking about going there? Here, I do a mini travel guide and show you a sampler, recommending 5 Fun Things To Do in the Cape, featuring the following; Visiting a lighthouse, biking on the Cape Cod Rail Trail, paddling on the Bass River, walking in the bay at low tide and touring the Truro Vineyard/Distillery. Plus, I catch the smallest saltwater fish I ever saw. What kind of fish is it?

Check out my short video which is a supplement to last week’s Shark posting. (No dangerous sharks included here.) Please let me know what you think. Enjoy!

This cold weather is making me long for summer at the beach, so here is a drawing of a lighthouse. Can’t you just smell the salty air and feel the warmth of the sun on your face?

Although the summer warmth is no more and the crowds of sun worshipers have disappeared, the Light still goes on.

This is my drawing of a lighthouse on Nauset Beach in Cape Cod. The lighthouse is still operating, guiding ships that pass in the Atlantic Ocean.

Somebody does live in that house. Probably the luckiest person in the world, in my book, to have such a wonderful oceanside view and to have an awesome lighthouse on their front yard.

My pencil drawing of Pemaquid Light from a recent trip to Maine. It was quite a trek to get to, but very much worth it.
