Searching For Cats At The Ocean

We bloggers always love to share the unique search queries that bring folks to our sites.

I just had a hit on "white cat motel old orchard" from someone in Quebec. A few days ago, I wrote about the summer trips my family would take to Old Orchard Beach, Maine and the motel where we stayed so it makes sense why Google served up this link.

This search reminded me of a trip we took one summer to Falmouth, Massachusetts. It's at the base of Cape Cod, not to far from Rhode Island to the West and the Kennedy compound in Hyannis to the East. It is also a launching point for ferries going to the islands of Nantucket and Martha's Vinyard.

Two things I remember about that trip:
• The fog was so dense in the morning you couldn't see five feet in front of you. No exaggeration. It didn't burn off until about noon.
• There was a orangy-brown tabby cat named Peanut Butter that made the rounds to visit all the guests every afternoon. So friendly and cute.
