Lower Cape, Part 1

You'd think that P-Town would be considered the Upper Cape and Bourne the Lower Cape, but it's exactly the opposite.  One gorgeous day near the end of September, I headed up to my friend Susan's in N. Eastham and we went out exploring & shooting pics in Eastham, Wellfleet & Truro.

We started at Nauset Light, near her house. 

This is all a part of the Cape Cod National Seashore.  This is Lighthouse Beach.

Then we drove back up the road to check out the abandoned Three Sisters Lighthouses, which were operational till the late 80s when they were moved from the eroding cliffs, back to this clearing in the woods. 

This was really cool to see but they are kind of creepy.  I got 'that feeling' when we were there. 

Then we drove to Truro to see Cape Cod Light, aka Highland Light.

For $4, you can climb up to the top.  It's not an easy climb at all and there is no way a tall person could do it.  The steps are in a spiral staircase but it's extremely steep and narrow and the last bit of the climb is up a ladder and through a small hole with no headroom.  I even had to be careful I didn't smack my head on ceiling.

But the view was sooooo worth the climb.

That's the power plant in Sandwich!

And Pilgrim Monument in P-Town

I thought those 2 sandtraps looked like big footprints.

There was a little museum down below.

In the gift shop and no I didn't buy any!
