The Tales of the Traveling Tote is a series of adventures that share where our Mackenzie Childs tote bags have taken us. Four times a year a group of bloggers each write a connected post about the places we have been. We have built incredible friendships through our blogs and we hope you enjoy our tales as much as we do!
To read about how it all began, go HERE
We visited the Brewster Flats...
Measuring approximately 12,000 acres at low tide, the tidal flats that run along the coastline of Cape Cod Bay are the largest flats in North America. The unique area extends some 9.7 miles along the shore from Brewster to North Eastham and can extend up to 2 miles out in the bay.
Looking back to the shoreline:

We also took a little hike out to The Knob in Falmouth:
The Wandering Mug came along....

A day spent walking around Plymouth brought back memories from 11th grade when 6 of us skipped school and the car broke down....needless to say we had to fess up and accept the punishment of 10 hrs detention!

We spent a weekend camping in our daughter's gorgeous camper on a hot 4th July weekend.
Lynne and I were a great team!
I took a calligraphy class in Rochester to brush up on my skills:
Decorating the golf cart for the "golf cart patriotic parade" was a highlight. The pool was perfect for cooling down and making friendship bracelets and painting rocks was a fun time:

Lake Ontario on a hot summer morning was as calm as could be:
I enjoyed working at the store in Aurora during the Barn Sale:
Lynne and I were a great team!

The Historical Ghost Tour in Oswego, NY was a fun and spooky night:
And we are currently in Ohio visiting the other two grandsons, this silly one who sends me a selfie daily and the other who is an excellent soccer player!

I have never been to your neck of the woods, but its so beautiful in Cape Cod from what I see!
ReplyDeletePatti, your adventures look like a perfect summer itinerary! I love that you get back to your stomping grounds regularly. The Ohio camper adventure and golf cart parade looked like great fun. I can't get over how, watching through the years, Carter has grown into.such a strikingly handsome young man and soccer star. You must be so proud!
ReplyDeleteYou've become a staple within the M-C camp, and it's a privilege knowing you and sharing our tales among friends and acquaintances! Happy September!
You have been having non=stop fun Patti! Love the beautiful arial photo of the flats, and working at the Barn Sale, be still my heart!

You are a gal on the go Patti and I would love to have been on your summer travel tour. Brester Flats looks like a beautiful place for walking, my favorite thing to do at the coast. Camping out with your family must have been so much fun, making family memories. I think it's great you live so close to the MC Farm and how much fun working the barn sale! Happy September Patti....
ReplyDeletePatti, looks like a fun summer. I have never been to Cape Cod. Brewster Flats looks calm and peaceful. Camping in style is my cup of tea. Your grands are certainly growing up fast. You are so fortunate to live close to Mackenzie Childs. I bet it was a blast working at the barn sale,
ReplyDeleteThanks for taking me along on your fun summer adventures. Happy Labor Day.
I didn't get to visit the Cape this summer, so I especially enjoyed your photos of the Cape. Thank you! Fun to see Carter! I know you enjoy your grandsons. They are lucky to have you and John present in their lives. Thanks for sharing the summer adventures.
ReplyDeleteOh what fun Patti. Cape Cod and the east coast is on my bucket list. Your grandson are so sweet. Happy Labor Day. Enjoy the new week. Hugs. Kris
ReplyDeleteSuper post, and you have interested me in considering Cape Cod for a vacation. I would love to come to the Barn Sale at some point, but this summer I haven't been able to do hardly anything! Golf cart parades are so much fun. You have had a busy and fun-filled summer! I will have to live vicariously through you!
ReplyDeleteYour summer adventures look perfect! We sure do squeeze a lot into our summers since they are too short. Carter has grown into a handsome young man and soccer star - I know you are very proud. I remember when he was a toddler in the bathtub with bubbles :-)
