And who can forget the classic Jaws movie which sent terror into the hearts of millions of viewers? It's all about Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard, and Nantucket. On the regional map, it's the area on the far right, shaped like a bent arm. So these are the towns in the Cape area - across the canal. I just love the cape. My boyfriend practically grew up there and we go there every chance we can get. I'll be adding in a lot of photos and items in here! I always think of blue hydrangeas when I think of the Cape. It seems they grow everywhere out there! As I work on my town-photo-a-day project I'll be filling in the town names below. Be sure to bookmark and come back to watch the progress!
