Back Home Again

Sunrise at Back Beach Rockport, Cape Ann, MA

We got up at 6AM to get to the beach just as it started to get light and before the tourists and dog walkers were out.

What a great trip..mostly sunny, not too hot and found some sea glass on a couple of days. took a trip to Marblehead and the beautiful day turned cloudy, windy and cold so we headed back north to Rockport but will try again next year..found the old Burial Hill with some of the earliest graves in New England and managed to get a few decent photos, see below.

 

Another Death Head marker, these are very old, mid 17th century.

 

View of stones, homes and Atlantic harbor at Marblehead from up on the Burial ground.

And of course, I had to add a flower box from Mt Pleasant in Rockport..the flowers are unreal out there, always a million beauty spots to enjoy.

 

Now I have to try to lose the 2# I gained from those fantastic breakfasts at our B and B and fish sandwiches from fish caught the same day..and the best fries I have EVER eaten...good thing we only stayed 4 days!!!
