atlantic cedar swamp trail-0141

“Two roads diverged in a wood and I – I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference.”
Robert Frost

Actually not so much with this boardwalk. It just loops around in a circle – as does the actual Cedar Swamp Trail.

chatham harbor -0394

There are any number of beautiful towns and villages tucked into the hillsides and coastline of New England, and Chatham MA might just be the most photogenic of them all. It’s a small town of six thousand (three times that in the summer) on the elbow of Cape Cod, with many wonderful homes throughout (that classic Cape style), and spectacular ocean views to the east and south as well.

Now granted, I’ve only been there once – which just happened to be on a beautiful early September day with a huge high pressure ridge (lots of blue skies, low humidity) firmly in place over the entire Cape – but still. It’s a remarkable town and certainly worth a visit, or two or three.

From the grounds of the Chatham Bars Inn, one of the pricier places to stay in town. Unfortunately we already had reservations at a campground up the road.

The aforementioned JJ, the keystone arch bridge and (part of the) swimming hole.

westfield river-9907

It’s August, and so off I went with JJ on our yearly trek to the fabled “Arches”. Lots of water moving through, perhaps the highest volume I have witnessed on these trips, and VERY COLD. Basking in the whole gestalt of the place (and taking a long swim), can do wonders for what ails a soul – it’s just that kind of place. This view is slightly upstream from the swimming hole, which itself is just up from the keystone arch bridge.
