Ok, today DOES feel like spring, and a walk on the beach is actually nice. Do it if you’re near!
You Never Know What You’ll See…
I took this last Oct 9 at The Daily Brew. Fun moment for all the Brew-ers!
Brrr, Swimming on New Year’s, Old Silver Beach, Falmouth, MA
New Year’s Day run and dunk at Old Silver Beach, to benefit the Cape Cod Center for Women. The runs were great, 3 and 5 miles, perfectly comfortable in shorts and a t-shirt for many of the runners. But then you got onto the beach. In a bathing suit. The wind made it mighty chilly! Here are some images of the run and dunk, headquartered at The Seacrest, and a video of the start of the 3 mile run. (My phone, delicate flower that it is, refused to shoot the dunk. Too cold, I guess. Time for a new phone, you think?)
Championship Game Send-off!
The football team left for the state playoffs at Gillette Stadium with a police escort and a parade of cheering parents and enthusiastic fans. Falmouth pride! Take a look:
New Listings, Part 2
#21609092
61 Alma Road, Falmouth
$660,000
This is a pretty good deal: The house is much more spacious than it appears from the street. With 6 bedrooms (and 2 baths), and a garage; and in the best Heights location – a quick walk to both Main Street, the beach and the ferry – it’s got a lot of appealing qualities. The price may be a little high, but probably not much.
#21608155
64 Thomas Lane, Falmouth
$1,349,000
Here’s a home with presence in a setting that reminds me of the Hamptons – gracious older homes behind privet hedges, and just one block from the beach. The house, however, needs either a buyer who wants the separate living area attached to the house for family or to rent out; or a buyer who will gut the home and capture that space. There is definite charm, nice high ceilings, and well-proportioned rooms in one part of the house. No garage, and definitely in the flood zone, but oh, the setting and location are prime.
