Last week, Steve rented a house down in Cape Cod, and on Monday I drove the boys down to join him.

The house is the same house we stayed in a few years ago. The kids were much, much younger then, and I remember being pretty nervous about the steep stairways.

The house itself is just fantastic, with tons of bedrooms all jumbled together. They’re all kind of stacked together, as though someone created them separately and then picked them up, one block at a time, not looking to see if the next room was a hallway or a bathroom or a bedroom. It’s the perfect beach house.

I was only there for a day, but managed to get a lot in. We went to the beach, we went for a walk to the windmill down the street, we went out for lobster - thank you, Lillian!. The next day we went out to breakfast at The Pancake Man!
