(e:Paul) and (e:terry) have been married for a whole year today. They've been together for nearly 15. I feel so lucky to be part of a long and amazing love with them.

We're spending the day driving back from Provincetown but there's nobody else I'd rather be with. Here's to many more years of adventure.

The squid babies we found were not long for this world. We tried to save a few egg sacs from drying up on the beach by putting them in a bottle, and it worked - for a little while.

They even started breaking out of their eggs and swimming. It was so cute. But when we packed up our campsite tomorrow, we accidently left them in the car. I think they might have cooked because none of then swam after that. So we gave them a good send off in the sea before we went home.

After the hurricane was over, (e:Paul), (e:terry) and I decided to go out and see what happens in Provincetown. We headed out to visit the A House bar that Paul wanted to see. It was kind of like a nicer Marcella's with more spaces and the same people people.

The night got much better when we walked down the beach and found this crazy house party going on. It was packed and had a much more fun crowd, plus free beer. We made friends with a guy from Toronto named Jonsey plus a human teddy bear named Paul. By the time we left the sun was already coming up - we had to leave our place the next morning.

The last days here are soaked by the hurricane Arthur. Its been pouring all day, but (e:Paul) and I got to swim in a stormy Atlantic anyway. The waves were so strong, I think we would have been swept away if we went any further.

The fireworks are delayed but we might be able to catch some tomorrow or on the way back.

I thought I became comfortable with the ocean. I got over crabs being in the water, the thought of rip tides and sharks, and even touched comb jelly fish (they don't sting).

But this fucker is so scary. (e:Paul) says it's a horseshoe crab. It has a poisonous stinger, a bunch of claws and pincers. Its also a type of spider and not a crab, so watch out (e:mike).

Still I love swimming in the ocean. The beach here is so amazing I want to swim and ride the waves all day.

After we got back we went to a really nice vegetarian/local restaurant called tinys. Paul had a shrimp noodle dish and (e:terry) and I split falafel tacos and polenta veggies.
