A cold front had passed the day before, the wind was cold and howling, the waves churned up.
Every time I think about moving to a warmer climate, I am again struck by the beauty of this area. I have lived in southeastern Massachusetts for 25+ years - I never would have guessed that outcome earlier in my life.

A lone dog walker and I were the only ones out and about on this windy afternoon.

I am sure that most of the time it must be nice having a house right on the edge of the beach. But sometimes it has disadvantages, like after a very high storm tide that erodes the sand.

Here's how one homeowner addressed the problem - elevate the house on concrete pillars and board up the oceanside windows.
