The weekend of February 10-12 was a pretty fun one. On Friday the 10th, I got out of work a couple of hours early (don't worry, I worked later the rest of the week), and went to Boston to pick up Allison for a trip down Cape Cod to Chatham. If you think of the Cape as a flexed arm, Chatham is in the elbow. What is normally about an hour and half drive, took closer to three. Traffic was horrendous. I'd expect that from Memorial Day to Labor Day, but wasn't quite ready for it in February. We made it to the Chatham Bars Inn around 6:30 Friday night and got settled in our room. Dinner was at the main lodge of the inn.
Saturday was very snowy, but that didn't stop us from going out. After an all you can eat brunch buffet, we explored Main Street in Chatham, and luckily, most of the stores there are open year-round. We also took a little drive to the Chatham Lighthouse, and to a couple of beaches. The fireplace in the room was definitely needed when we got back to rest up before another dinner at the main lodge.
Sunday was a day to sleep in a bit, followed by another all you can eat brunch. After checking out, we did drive a bit further down the Cape to Orleans, but found nothing worth getting out of the car for. It was a very cold, and very windy day, so it would've taken a lot for us to get out of the Jeep anyway.
