Chill XIII


Stevo was right about the weather. I mean, not one but two Nor'Easters in one weekend...in October! Nevertheless, we made the most of it, and as usual it was a great weekend. Starting off with a little dinner at an Irish restaurant on Thursday night, right up through the annual spaghetti sauce, the tenderloin (okay, I said it again....more points), the sumptuous breakfasts, and the wine, the scotch, the wine, the scotch...and the introduction of the tradition of the Coup D'Amis!
Who said 13 is an unlucky number. Guess we do it all over again next year!

2009: Cannon Hill via Uncle Tim's Bridge

With one day of clear weather, this year's mystery tour landed all of us at Wellfleet's iconic pedestrian bridge.





A short walk up-hill from the harbor, found us slurpin clams & oysters, and warming up with delicious New England clam chowdah.





And oh yeah, shoppin the craft-filled tents at the Wellfleet Oyster Festival.
