Spring break has finally arrived and Emily and I headed north... because we are crazy. We flew to Boston, MA to see some friends, see some history, geocache 3 new states, and grab a bunch of stamps.
On the final day of March, after arriving in Boston at 2:00am, we headed with the Hadelers to Cape Cod for a relaxing weekend at a B & B. After driving 2 hours from Boston, we had reached the cape and made our way to the national park.

Wow, the music was so 1992, electronic/synthesized. The video was informational, make sure to stop and make time for the videos at each park.
We then headed into the book store where we got our stamps and showed our friends all about the stamping program. They purchased a book and started stamping as well.
After asking the ranger, she pulled out another stamp from a location that was currently closed. Just a word to the wise, if you go to Cape Cod in the winter or spring, many of the things are closed until May 1 or 15, but it does save you a lot of money on lodging!

We drove up to the Marconi Station site (the site of the first wireless transatlantic transmitter built over 100 years ago) by accident. I was looking for the park headquarters, missed the entrance, and continued down the road. The station had a nice overlook of the water and dunes. There wasn't much left as the sea had eroded away 2 of the 4 pillars over the last 100 years. The cape is ever changing. We took some very colorful pictures even though the sky was grey and the ground was brown.
