Here we go!

Okay, so I honestly don't think I've ever seen an episode of Star Trek, but this is the first thing that came into my mind as I begin this Wonderful, Wacky World of Blogging. This, from someone who's probably only visited 3 blogs in my life!! This should be interesting... for everyone!

I've been coming to the Cape my whole life, spending every summer at my parent's cottage on Ellis Landing in Brewster. My husband and I were married in 1996 at Northside Church and had our reception at Ocean Edge, both in Brewster. We moved here permanently 10 years ago, settling in Sandwich. We have 3 young children, all lucky enough to be born here, (thus making them "Native Cape Codders"). Our oldest son is entering the 3rd grade this fall, our daughter will start Kindergarten, and our youngest son is in pre-school, all at the Wing Elementary School in Sandwich. I am currently on the Wing PTA board, serving as PTA Secretary. See what we're up to by visiting: http://www.htwingpta.org/ .

I was recently an active member of the Sandwich Women's Club as well, and served for several years in various board positions. The SWC are a dedicated group of hard-working women who strive to serve the greater good for our community. Check out their website at: http://www.sandwichwomensclub.org/

Currently, I am serving on the Sandwich Beach Advisory Board for the Town of Sandwich. This 7 member committee will work under the direction of the Sandwich Recreation Department, and will serve as a sounding board to the Town on policy and compliance issues for all Town salt and fresh-water beaches. I am optimistic that my 10+ years experience in Environmental Compliance will bring a level of professionalism to this committee. Also, my "homework" of having to go to the beach will be an added benefit!! Visit the Sandwich website to see what's new in town: http://www.sandwichmass.org/

My "mission" for this blog is to share my favorite sites, places and things in Sandwich, MA and throughout the Cape. Sooooo, If you're fond of sand dunes and salty air; Quaint little villages here and there; You're sure to fall in love with My Cape Cod. This will be purely bias and highly subjective, but I'm open to suggestions and welcome any advice from my faithful followers - if I ever get any!!

Enjoy, and remember that all seasons on the Cape are the best!


Thanks for listening....
