Barnstable, Cape Cod, Massachusetts, USA

Barnstable is the largest town on Cape Cod and includes seven separate villages: Barnstable, Centerville, Cotuit, Hyannis, Martons Mills, Osterville, and West Barnstable.

The Millway Marina in Barnstable connects to the Barnstable Harbor and Cape Cod Bay.  The large boat at dock is a popular whale watching venture.

Nose high in the air, the scent of the nearby ocean has this trusty dog on alert.

Perhaps a Cape Cod quirk or maybe only in the town of Barnstable - this business is not "closed" it is "shut" - go figure.  This wasn't the only store using such terminology.

Cape Cod is not just beaches, tourists, quaint villages and houses, but also has many productive farms and gardens.
