Winding Down

Falmouth road race weekend is over, and it’s cool and overcast today, so it really feels like summer is winding down.
There’s a playoff game at Cotuit this afternoon, weather permitting.
I missed a couple of events I probably would have enjoyed, the Cape Verdean Festival at Onset on Saturday and the Bourne Historical Society Summer Soiree at Briarwood in Pocasset yesterday. Just didn’t find out about them until it was too late.
Emme and I had a nice afternoon, though. We poked around Home Depot, then had a snack and picked up some books at Border’s. We stopped at Cape Leisure in Cotuit and bought a Hatteras hammock to replace the rope one that had been vandalized.
We spent the remainder of the afternoon in the backyard, either in the hammock or reading in the surprisingly comfortable chairs belonging to the new outdoor dining set.
