Christmas Trip - Day 2

I had to telework early in the morning but was also able to take a walk before most everyone else was awake.  I also went in the hot tub with snow all around me!  When Mollie woke up (1030), we all had a light breakfast and then she spent the morning watching “A Christmas Story” with my sister’s family.  I treated everyone to lunch from Bertucci’s at 1215 and later finished my telework day (1345).  A bit later, Mollie asked if we could drive down to Cape Cod to see my dad and Beth so I took her there (via MA-3 and US-6).  We stopped briefly so we could "visit" (from the car, with masks) and then headed east on MA-6A.  After reaching Yarmouth, we explored familiar areas near my childhood home and also stopped at my mom’s grave site in Brewster (1600).  We took a brief walk on Paine’s Creek Beach and then headed back toward my sister's house (US-6, MA-3).  We listened to more “The Moth” podcasts on the way and Mollie enjoyed these even more than she had the previous night.  We arrived in Hanover (MA) at 1730 and ate a light dinner (tuna fish sandwiches, Mollie’s request because it was “tradition”).  Mollie spent the rest of the evening with her cousins (cooking, hot tub, fire pit, movies).  I went to bed at 2200 but Mollie stayed up even later than the previous night - she is really glad to be here.
