Yesterday we went to Great Island in Wellfleet. Gorgeous day, not a cloud in the sky.

It was hot (by Cape Cod standards), so I decided not to join Stefano on a trek way down the beach, almost to Jeremy Point, a more than 5-mile walk under the midday sun. Not my cup of tea. While waiting for him to return, I relaxed on the beach, looked for shells and went for a couple of swims, my first in many years…ah, bliss…
