on a hump day afternoon

yesterday was beautiful out (comparatively, it has been raining the rest of the week), so i decided to take my half day and visit grandma who is down the cape for the week. i really wanted to go to chatham and shop. jim and i used to go there sometimes, and i always liked it.

as it was a wednesday afternoon, traffic was obviously not that bad. so i made it in an hour, which is reasonable enough for an afternoon fake vacation. it was really nice to get away, though i was tempted to stay through the weekend.

so if you are thinking of going out to the cape, here are a few places in chatham that i love to frequent.

yankee ingenuity
artful hand gallery (also at copley place)
song of ireland (a little ways out of the main villange, but still on the main road)

if you're looking for good food and cold beer, head to the squire. word to the wise, if you are looking for sandwiches and burgers, make sure you sit on the tavern side, they don't serve their bar menu in the dining room.
