It’s a special year-end Geek Out post. Rather than compiling specific movie, music, book or [insert topic here] list, I decided to do the top 10 from all aspects this year. Here we go…
1) My husband, Will: We celebrated 13 years together and 11 years of marriage in 2008 and it’s awesome (of course). Besides [...]
Ptown: Art, Sex, and Money on the Outer Cape by Peter Manso was a very engaging book to read in the lead up to and time after our vacation to Provincetown. Manso has lived in Ptown since the 1950s and that put him in a unique position to chronicle the history of the town, which [...]
Thursday was a jam packed day. As you may have already read, we were up early for the sunrise and we went to the Carnival parade. Between those events we took a expedition out to Long Point, which is truly the end of the road for Cape Cod. As we wrote about back on Wednesday [...]
Just a quick post for now. Today was the annual Provincetown Carnival Parade (to us it seemed like a Pride parade mixed with Mardi Gras). The theme was Wild, Wild West so you’ll see lots of cowboys in this video highlight reel we put together.
We did a lot of other stuff today too, including [...]
There’s a cool show on Discovery HD called Sunrise Earth. As you might expect from the title, all you get to see is sunrise from various places around the world. We got up at 5 this morning to watch the sunrise. It was beautiful watching the color change in the sky, the gulls wake up, [...]
We’ve had yet another great 24 hours (which I suppose is no surprise at this point).
Last night we had a great Mexican dinner with A.J., Marc and Mark and then walked around for a while checking out the goings on. It’s Carnival week here so there are tons of people out and about. We had [...]
It’s been a pretty relaxed day. We got up late, if for no other reason than we could. We decided to head into to town and grab a little education, so we checked out the Pilgrim Monument, which is the tallest all-granite structure in the U.S. (it’s 252 feet, 7.5 inches). Why is there a [...]
We walked a lot of the main drag of the town today, about 1.5 miles or so (one way) between our Inn and the farthest point we got to. Commercial Street is where everything happens. It’s lined with shops, restaurants, galleries…everything. Today we mostly looked at shops, just poking around anything that looked interesting. We [...]
After a fantastic dinner, at a place I don’t remember the name of, we went to The Art House to see Lea DeLaria’s Hardcore show. We love Lea, having see her on Broadway in On the Town and The Rocky Horror Show as well in the off-Broadway show The Most Fabulous Story Ever Told, we [...]
Vacation officially started today. At 6:30 this morning we were at Penn Station to catch the 7am train to Boston. From there we had lunch and then at 1pm it was all aboard the Provincetown Ferry for the 90 minute trip out to the very tip of the cape. Not sure where we are? Here’s [...]
