Paine's Creek Flight

Recently, a client at one of the Craft Fairs I was showcasing my photography asked if I had any images of a nearby beach. I have lots of images of many places on Cape Cod, however, that beach was one I do not have pictures of. She was saddened, it meant a lot to her. And a friend of hers, too.

Paine's Creek Beach

It's a local Town Beach near where the Fair was, and, as I do not live in that town, I did not have a town parking permit to attend the Beach. It certainly is a beautiful place.

She explained, how, her friend and her had grown up here, raised their kids together, here. She then further explained that his friend's son was dying. I could clearly see the sadness.

I made a trip, the other day, with my drone, parked a ways away, as that is all that was allowed. But, it turns out, the drone can move. And it did, indeed. I followed the Creek,

Over the hedgerows of scrub pines, and along the marshy waters... until I hit the shore.

I hope, when I see her, this coming weekend at the Harwich Cranberry Festival Artisan Market, she can find some images of her childhood, her kids' favorite beach, and that she can have some pleasant memories with her friend!
