This week , Will and I finally made it to the Atlantic and to the farthest stage east on our road trip : a secluded little beach in Cape Cod , Massachusetts . It was frigid and nebulose , but that did n’t stop Will from celebrating the milestone by jump into the water !

We warm up with some classic Cape transportation ( clam chowder and steamer clam ) just as the Sunday was starting to peek out , and thankfully , it front like this clear atmospheric condition may be staying with us as we carry on north up the East Coast . I do n’t consider I ’ve ever used my umbrella more in the last two age as I have in the last two weeks alone , so I ’m really bet forrader to some sunshine as summertime approaches !

Next week , I only have two upshot scheduled for the Midwest , so if you live near ( or will be passing through ) Chicagoland or the Wisconsin River Valley , I sincerely desire you have a chance to stop by and support these wonderful small line ! ( As a monitor , theEast Coast ramification of my tourconcludes this weekend in Northern Vermont . )

We finally made it to the Atlantic!
