Welcome to Week 28 – B Week: Pearls' Coastal Capers! Featuring: Blades, Benches, Baker, Bridge, Breakers BLADES Blades of the Judah Baker Windmill in South Yarmouth. Constructed in 1791 overlooking Grand Cove, it was moved several times before being placed in its current spot on a cliff above Windmill Beach. On W-week I tried really hard to find a photography angle that would include both the windmill and the beach but figured out that without a drone it would not be possible. So I ended up posting a photo of just the beach. Here for B-week are just the windmill blades. BENCHES Benches at Seaview Beach, South Yarmouth MA. Early May and not a soul around. By July it's so crowded you often can't even find a parking space! BAKER The Captain Baker Donut Shop. Initially I thought the name of this donut shop was a creative seafaring theme. A sea captain baking donuts … sure, why not! But after some research I discovered that Captain Calvin F. Baker was a real sea captain who in the late 1800's built the home and the carriage house that has been transformed into this local favorite donut shop. Genealogy fun fact: The Windmill Baker family and the seafaring Baker family appear to be descendants of the same early colonial settler. BRIDGE The Bass River Bridge in July. I was on the bridge facing southwest trying to get a good photo of the moon over nearby Packet Landing when I noticed that it was starting to get light out and the moon was harder to see. So I packed up and got ready to head home. Then out of the corner of my eye I caught this pretty sunrise view off the opposite, northeast, side of the bridge. Serendipity! BREAKERS Ocean breakers producing pretty white foam over the jetty at Corporation Beach in October. Part of the reason I love this beach is the proximity of the parking lot. You can drive right up to the beach and get this view! I was standing next to my car when I took this photo. Thanks for joining me for Pearls' Coastal Capers - “B week”!

Thanks, Maudie! I agree ... it is such a pretty windmill. Can't wait for J-week (Judah Baker Windmill) to post a full photo of it I took while standing on the beach below. It's bordered by boulders and flowers.

Thanks, Shartaun. Glad you enjoyed them! The windmill is positioned in such a way that it's tricky to photograph, but the challenge was half the fun!

Glad you liked the photos, Lilium! The unoccupied bench photo shows how I "feel" Cape Cod. I love off-season days when everything's quiet.

I love to watch the waves breaking against the rocks! Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.
