Paid in Scallops, Paid in Pizza

September 25, 2019 by Nadine

Last December I took holiday photos of a scallop fleet captain and his family, and was paid in scallops. Yesterday I gave three photos I took in the 1980’s of the iconic turreted hotel in Onset that’s graced the hill in the village since 1883 (formerly known as the Stonebridge Inn, now as the Glen Cove Restaurant and Bar) to the current owners- who also are the owners of Marc Anthony’s Pizza, the other Onset Village icon. The photos I passed along are moody, evocative and interesting, and John Salerno was over the moon to have them. I left with the best pizza this side of New York, which I was happy to share with my friends from NY. They know!

If you want to step back in time, visit Onset. Often compared to Cape May, NJ, the Victorian homes, sandy beaches, and charming vistas will charm you. Have pizza at Marc Anthony’s, or sit at the bar at Glen Cove. There’s music on the weekends in the 1883 Room. You might even see my photos!

The “Big Picture”

August 24, 2019 by Nadine

These are pottery tiles made into a mural by Tessa of Flying Pig Pottery in Woods Hole, sold as a fundraiser years ago. The mural is the welcoming entrance to the Children’s Room at the Main Library. I loved the pies flying in the sky, donated by – of course – Pie in the Sky. Still there, as is Tessa, who continues to make beautiful mugs for WCAI’s fundraisers. Thank you, Tessa!

Know what this is, where it is, why it is, and the maker?

2019 Falmouth Road Race

August 18, 2019 by Nadine

Here are some pictures and videos of the Falmouth Road Race from my vantage point at the finish line this morning. Cloudy and humid, but a decent breeze to begin the day. Not as great as last year’s ideal conditions, but better than some, especially the remains of a hurricane we had back in the late 80’s.

In addition to the traditions and memories that so many have around this race, it’s also a significant source of grants and donations that benefit many people. Since 2012, the Falmouth Road Race, Inc. has donated over $2 million to local youth organizations and individual scholarships.

Additionally, the charities that received bib numbers raised a record $4.9 million last year, with over $35 million raised since 2000. Think about all the non-runners who benefit in a significant way from this. Thank you, Falmouth Road Race and Tommy Leonard. We are grateful!
