I like it right now. I can drive around without being in a competition. One
of my favorite towns is Provincetown. It was founded as a fishing / whaling
community. There are great dunes as you approach which reminds me of the
Outer Banks NC. If you look at a map, it occupies a thin strip of land that
curves to the left into a point and when you round the bend you can look
across the water of the bay to see this sparking community. There is a huge
beach with pine forests on the East side.... Race Point. On a good day you
can look out and spot a whale breaching. This was the site of the Mayflower's
first landing where they hunkered down that first winter and were looked
after by the Wapanog indians who showed them how to survive. The tribe is
still located here and they have tribal lands. And... they hate Thanksgiving!
Go figure!
