Visit in a storm

At the Cape Cod National Seashore.

“What are springs and waterfalls? Here is the spring of springs, the waterfall of waterfalls. A storm in the fall or winter is the time to visit it; a light-house or a fisherman's hut the true hotel. A man may stand there and put all America behind him.’’

— Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862), in Cape Cod

Provincetown in Thoreau’s lifetime.
