Default T/A 'vert visits Cape Cod

Just got back from a 2,750 total miles trip up to Cape Cod in Massachusetts. The Trans Am was perfect as usual. No problems at all. What a wonderful vacation car. Here are some photos and a brief description.
1) The cottage we stayed at for one week in North Truro.
2) the view of Provincetown from the cottage.
3) Overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.
4) These are the Atlantic waters where all the shark attacks occurred recently in Truro & Wellfleet. We stayed in the pool.
5) A view of Pilgrim's monument from a boat tour in Provincetown harbor.
6) Nothing like fresh seafood along the way. Famous whole belly clams and onion rings
7) In line to board the car ferry (seen at left) to Martha's Vineyard. About a 1 hour trip.
8) 'Topless' driving with the Gay Head lighthouse in the background.
9) Looking good in front of another Martha's Vineyard lighthouse.

Sounds like a fun trip! I'm Ohio yesterday it was in the 60's and a little chilly. I think fall is here.

Nathan C, I always appreciate your responses. Thanks! Speaking of the 60's (not your temps though ) we bought that Time/Life CD set that is always advertised on TV. Since I grew up in that era it was good listening as we cruised along.

Thanks! It was wonderful when the weather cooperated. The usual 50/50 mix of rain and sun seems the norm for up there. I've always liked driving something a little different than the masses. I guess we all feel that way if we own these things. Not many comments from anyone though which is the opposite in this section of the country.

I'm digging the pics w/ the lighthouses in the background. A few years ago my wife and I converted our front yard light into a lighthouse (we live on a pond and have sea-going decor in some of our rooms). So, yea, kind of an fan of lighthouses.

Keep on representing! Your car looks great (as usual).

@JohnnyBs98WS6Rag Thanks! Lighthouses are fascinating to us as well. Just a link to the past I guess.
