Morning Dove is born| Falmouth| Cape Cod
September 21st, 2011 by trobinson
As you may recall we had a Morning Dove create a nest right on the edge of The Captain’s Manor Inn veranda where a Japanese Pine stands. We have been anxiously awaiting the birth of the offspring and we now have some pictures to share including one of Mom feeding her chick. Enjoy.

Fall on Cape Cod post Irene | Falmouth Ma
September 13th, 2011 by trobinson
Fall has come early this year thanks to Hurricane Irene (aka Tropical Storm Irene). This is a picture on Hurricane day taken on Grand Avenue in Falmouth.
Grand Avenue - Falmouth Heights Beach
We were fortunate at The Captain’s Manor Inn compared to so many as we only lost our internet, phones and cable for a little over 24 hours. The storm stirred up so much salt in the air that the tree leaves were coated with the salt which proceeded to suck the moisture right out of the leaves and they have been falling ever since. Some pictures of the storm impact are shown below as well as a picture of our son Kevin finally getting to trim the front yard boxwood shrubs after doing storm cleanup.
Hurricane Irene on the way| Cape Cod| Falmouth

Batten down the hatches!!! Irene is on her way and we have been getting ready. Yesterday we had the 2nd floor and cupola windows boarded up. Of course timing is everything…because we have been planning a bridal party for 25 women with the mother of the bride and several of her friends…and Irene decides to join the party. As you will see in some pictures below they are boarding up the windows while we are setting up the veranda for the bridal shower!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Boarding up for Hurricane Irene
A picture below of the finished product with The Captain’s Manor Inn all boarded up. Who knew staying at our bed & breakfast could be such an adventure

Kevin also thought he might like to park his truck in the garage and my car under the veranda……..as you can see the car idea was not going to work but a valiant effort.

In 2009 the Town of Falmouth was designated a “Preserve America Community“ by the White House. This award is important because it is for perpetuity and Falmouth is the only town on the Cape to have received this award. The award is a tribute to the our historical organizations and individuals who have helped to keep our town’s history preserved and relevant for us and for the future. 
In 2011, Falmouth plans to honor the “Preserve America” designation in conjunction with the 325th Anniversary of the incorporation of Falmouth in 1686.
We invite you to book your accomodations at the elegant Captain’s Manor Inn in Falmouth where there are numerous historic sites, museums, and homes. Guided historic walks are provided by The Falmouth Historic Society as well as Highfield Hall.
We are especially proud of Falmouth’s designation as a Preserve America Community and view ourselves as stewards of The Captain’s Manor Inn, a Cape Cod bed and breakfast built in 1849 and lovingly restored to its old-world architectural splendor with up-to-date amenities. The Inn is listed on the National Historic Register of Historic Places as part of the Falmouth Village Green Historic District.

They are proud to share that over 95% of our cash donations and program fees go directly into program operations.
Cape Cod Winter Wonderland
December 23rd, 2010 by trobinson
We just cleaned out from our first snowstorm of the season!
The snow was heavy and wet vs. light and fluffy. You can tell how the ocean wind was pushing the snow by the looking at the east side of the Inn sign as compared to the west side of the sign. Also if you look at an enlargement of the front of the Inn picture you will see a wreath was blown away by the wind. (Our daughter Laura found it in one of the shrubs in the front yard after a bit of a search : -).
The Falmouth Village Green decorations look even more special after the snow.
