Cape May - Anniversary

Catching up with some events - we took a little trip to Cape May near our anniversary.  Did some shopping, some eating, and some sightseeing.

This is a quick picture of one of the storefront windows in the outdoor mall.  I can't remember for ceratin the name of those fuzzy brown stalks, I think it's ornamental millet, but they're pretty prevalent at this time of year in fall arrangements.

Yes, we had dessert first - Pumpkin/Cinnamon frozen custard.  Mainly because we were there first and weren't going to backtrack after lunch because finding parking at that time would be an adventure.

And lunch was at the Lobster House where we secured an outdoor table on the dock, HWNSNBP enjoying his pre-meal appetizer, oyster crackers and horseradish sauce.  

A view through the rail.

A quick stop at the lighthouse with a drive around that secluded area.

The purple martin houses were still up but the purple martins were gone for the year.

The last stop was back at the West End Garage antique mall.  This bouncing flying pig managed to follow us home.

Walking back to the card this driveway grate caught my eye......

....as did the bark on this sycamore tree.   

And a very fuzzy picture of the card I made for HWNSNBP.  

It's always a quick trip there and back, but always enjoyable.
