Eastham's Easter Egg Hunt - Wet But Fun

Yesterday morning, the day before Easter Sunday, the Town of Eastham Recreation Department held their annual Easter Egg Hunt at Wiley Park. The weather wasn't great, being wet and cold. But the many folks who showed up had a good time. Kids, of all ages, were sent off to collect plastic eggs filled with candy or a special prize. It was fast and furious for about 10 minutes.  My grand kids (5 this weekend!) all scored plenty of candy - more than their parents would let them eat in one sitting.  Below is Maddie, one of the twins, collecting her eggs.

Eastham's 1651 Arboretum at Wiley Park

I live just a stone's throw from a treasure that is hidden in the woods on the east side of Great Pond, in Eastham. Wiley Park is the home of the 1651 Arboretum. The 1651 Arboretum is intended to be a living monument to the arrival of the Pilgrims to Eastham’s shores and an interpretive educational exhibit illustrating the processes of natural succession and exemplifying the plant communities that were dominant on Cape Cod in the year 1651. There is a dedicated group of folks who research and execute plantings to that end. The Cape Codder ran an interesting article about the arboretum. Read it Here.
