Mollie and I got up at around 0700 and cleaned up the campsite/RV. At 0800, my dad came to pick us up and we went with him and Beth to breakfast at a diner (Al's/Stowell’s) in Manomet. We had a nice conversation and meal and then (0930) took a scenic drive (beaches, neighborhoods, etc.) in the Sagamore area. We also drove around in historic Sandwich on the way back to the campground. After saying goodbye to Beth, we helped my dad pack up the RV (1100). We then thanked him and said goodbye to him as he departed to service the RV. Mollie and I drove a short distance, back into historic Sandwich, and explored a nearly 400 year old cemetery. Mollie enjoyed looking through the ancient markers. Since the traffic situation was already degrading (typical Friday on Cape Cod), we drove across the Canal and looked around for a place to park near Scusset Beach. Once successful, Mollie and I took a 45 minute walk on the Canal Bikepath. Even though we'd taken our time and really enjoyed the morning weather, it was only about 1215. Since we’d run out of things to do in the area, I checked in with my sister (Katie) and she said we could stop by anytime and even stay overnight if we wanted. Mollie offered to treat me to “thank you” ice cream so we drove towards Katie’s house and got sundaes (sitting inside) at Friendly’s. Just after 1300, we arrived at my sister’s house and I started teleworking. Mollie rested in the living room initially but then did a lot of visiting with her Aunt Katie after she got home. Katie cooked a pizza and shared some with Mollie. Johnny suddenly appeared (he’d been napping since we arrived) and left for work. I took a break and joined Katie and Mollie’s conversation a little bit later (we talked about family, places we’d gone, their planned vacations and Mollie’s upcoming semester). I went back to work and Mollie then played board games and card games with Katie and John in their RV. After I finished my telework day (1700), I went in the hot tub in an effort to reduce my leg pain. Katie left for a house showing, so I talked to John and Mollie for a bit. When I got done relaxing, we all went back inside and watched old episodes of Masterpiece Theater (“All Creatures Great and Small”). Mollie also ate a light dinner while I snacked on food we’d brought. Mollie asked if we could watch a little of the Olympics Opening Ceremonies so we switched over to that broadcast. At about the same time, Brenna FaceTimed me to ask how she could watch the Olympics without cable or an antenna and I helped her set up my Peacock Premium account on her TV (she later texted that she was happy that it worked). Mollie and I then decided to continue watching the Masterpiece series (she liked it) until Johnny got home from work (2200). He seemed to be sick and John and Katie weren’t home yet, so I said goodnight and went to bed (Mollie told me later that she went to bed herself just a bit later).
