Our office is closed from August 19th - Sept 5th. As I have most summers for the last 64 years, I will be spending time in Woods Hole, Ma. My son and I have rented a house for these two weeks and will enjoy our time swimming, biking and visiting with friends. After a couple of weeks in Woods Hole, We feel rejuvenated and definitely more fit and happy.
I use this time to get myself back in shape by biking every day to Falmouth and back. The Shinning Sea bike path is partly along the water and is beautiful and while NYC has plenty of places to bike, the bike path here is easily accessible from our cottage.
I usually start out my vacation with only enough energy to bike 2/12 miles to Falmouth , where I stop at Coffee Obsession to have an iced coffee before heading home again. As I get in slightly better shape, I extend my trip by several more miles to Sippewissett salt marshes .
While some of my friends don't understand why I don't use my summer vacations to do traveling to other different destinations, I really enjoy my time in Woods Hole and my son feels pretty much the same way. It has become a family tradition that both of us look forward to all year long.
