Another day at the beach
Category: vacation

This time at the family end with my family which is decidedly less cruisy.

The waves were much bigger and so much more fun to ride in in. Some points
you couldn't even get up, they'd just knock you over. The waves alone make the ocean so much better than the lake.

Day at the beach
Category: vacation

Tuesday we went to the beach (after watching more HGTV all morning). We had to cross this break wall that was super long to the end of the cape. Then after walking through some poison ivy we got to the nude beach.

The nude beach and gay beach were fun and kind of cruisy. Everyone is looking everuone else uo and down and there were some serious porn staches going on.

I was afraid of the water at first - crabs and rip tides - but the waves were too fun. The ocean still seems like it was designed to kill you.

On the way back we walked through this sandy marsh area. Somewhere along the way I got a tick, which I discovered when we got back. Who knows if it had Lyme disease because I was in the shower and he fell down the drain. Fuck ticks.

Afterwards we had a nachoes at this Mexican place called Lorainnes with a super friendly waitress. Then we ate again with my uncles and family to celebrate their 15th anniversary.

Lobster bib
Category: vacation
The first day in Provincetown we walked around a lot and looked at everything on commercial street. We also watched many hours of HGTV.

I've never been in such a touristy place before. Everyone is hawking their restaurant and knick knacks as you walk by. I don't think I'd ever walk down Elmwood if Buffalo were like that.

The architecture is what you'd think a seaside town would be. It's really crowded and the street is always packed. Pedestrians and bikes are everywhere, and cars are always stuck with no place to go. I love it.

At night we went to this restaurant called Patio. (E:Paul) got his huge lobster. The pasta was pretty over priced and blah but it was a seafood restaurant.

The gayest place on earth
Category: gay
Provincetown has to be the gayest place on earth.

After we got in, we had trouble finding our room. For some reason the house number I wrote down on the phone with the owner was way off from what it actuly was. I swear I heard him right and he told me the wrong thing.

So we had a taco dinner with my family at their rental. Afterwards we headed out with my uncles to see the bars on Commercial St. They were insanely packed with the gayest and buffest looking people I've ever seen. The drink prices were also insanely priced. The one bar was like Cathode but with 10x the people and space, but just as cheesy music.

The night was weird but it wasn't long before we headed home.

PTown bound
Category: vacation

We are on the way to Provincetown right now. The long drive is so boring. I absolutely hate driving. We split the driving up pretty evenly but it'll be over three hours each so far this weekend. If it were up to me I would close half the 90 and put all the money into a parallel rail line. I wish there was a way to get there by train.

We're driving through these amazing looking hills and forests but you can't really tell since you move so fast and have to pay attention to a strip of asphalt. It's weird that we are completely atomized and anonymized in the car, driving through generic rest stops, ignoring anything that's not on the highway. But (e:Paul) is chatting with people on grindr about great places to hike nearby where we're driving through.
