WHERE TO DUMP OUR HOLDING TANKS

I hate to sound repetitious but we had another very beautiful sunny day on Tuesday. For some reason the sun feels more intense here - just like Alaska - even thought the temperature hovers in the mid 70's. Granted I'm not complaining. It is a marvelous change from the constant rain that we experienced on our trip here. The carpet in the "living room" in the 5th wheel has finally dried out. David and I worked in the yard in the morning. He watered the gardens and plants and I cleared out grass around the base of the trees in the front yard. We are going to put mulch around the bases of all the trees. I was amazed when I checked the vegetable garden this morning to find some of the lettuce seeds sprouting - just peeking through the soil. I'm actually surprised, since we only planted last Thursday.
The afternoon proved to be another adventure. David and I had driven out to Nickerson State Park the day before to check on dump facilities there, however, I was told that the dump stations are only open to campers registered at the park. They referred me to the Tri-State Sanitation Facility. After lunch, Robert and I headed out to find the facility and managed to get ourselves all turned around. If anyone can get lost, we are the ones, especially here on Cape Cod. We finally got ourselves back on track. The facility will be easy - now that we know the way - to get the 5th wheel to. It is open from 7:00am to 5:00pm daily and has a $6.00 change to dump.
From there we headed to Town Cove Park to take some pictures of the windmill that is a local attraction. This windmill was built in South Orleans in the early 1700's. Over the years it was moved to Orleans center and then Hyannisport. In 1983, it was given to the Orleans Historical Society and eventually to the town of Orleans. It has been authentically restored by the Historical Society and is the backdrop for many weddings and gatherings. It has a large wheel on the back side of it - attached to the top of the windmill. We don't know why, but maybe it was set up to move the windmill into the direction of the wind. (?)
