Welcome to Week 24: Tour of Cape Cod – X Week! Featuring: X-Shaped Fronds, Xenagogy, Xmas, Xenodocheionology, XOXO X-SHAPED FRONDS On “S-week” when I was on my way to photograph Saint's Landing I was thinking ahead to the remaining weeks of this photography project and wondering how I'd ever find subjects for the upcoming less commonly used letters. I arrived at the landing and on my way from the parking lot to the beach this formation of fronds caught my eye. So pretty against the glow of the sunrise, and so unexpected! XENAGOGY The term “xenagogy” may be rare but the guidebooks it describes are everywhere on Cape! Want a local's opinion of the guidebooks? I think they're a great convenience but not a total substitute for the visitors' own research. If you were to rely solely on the guidebook, you'd find great restaurants, bars, shopping, excursions, and accommodations, but you'd miss many places such as the peaceful, scenic town landings and the “mom and pop” businesses that don't advertise in the guidebook. XMAS I know it's early, but my cat and I would like to wish everyone who celebrates a very merry Xmas 2021. This is his 2020 Xmas portrait. XENODOCHEIONOLOGY According to Merriam-Webster it's “the lore of hotels and inns”. This book covers that and more including ill-fated sea voyages, legendary miscreants, and even the disappearance of Billingsgate Island. XOXO I made three separate trips to the beach to capture this image! Funny story … My first attempt was ok but I thought I could do better. On my second attempt the tide kept washing away the letters before I could snap the photo. I wondered why. Then it dawned on me that it mattered greatly whether the tide was coming in or going out! The third time was a charm: “Hugs and kisses from Pearls”. (Yes, that messy writing under the X's and O's is my handle, “Pearls”. Writing in the sand is harder than you'd imagine!) Thanks for joining me for “X week” on Cape Cod! A day without dance is .... just kidding. I have no idea!

Very extraordinary use for the letter X. Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

Exceptional and wonderful use of the letter "X". Of course my favourite two are your cute cat and the xoxo letters in the sand. Well done, Pearls.

Thank you! Question ... have you ever had a pic vanish into thin air? The cat photo that you mentioned is gone now and I didn't delete it. Puzzling! A day without dance is .... just kidding. I have no idea!

Oh Pearls you always come up with the cutest photos for your selection of the current letter. I though I was hallucinating when no photo of the cat. As you know on TBT the same thing happened to me. I went back and reattached the photos that went missing in the appropriate order. I wasn't sure it was going to work but it did. My favorite photos are the first and last ones. I see this so often on FB people posting photos of nature that looked like a human face or other things. Your name signed in the wet sand is very cute also.

Not sure what's going on with the photos lately. The same thing happened to another blogger yesterday. I was able to reattach it though so that's a positive thing. Thanks for commenting, and have a great weekend! A day without dance is .... just kidding. I have no idea!

Interesting X offerings. I thought the X shaped fronds opportunistic and inspirational (is the word I'm looking for serendipitous? ) - good for you! Also the XO XO's drawn in the sand and signed by you - very creative. Thanks Pearls
