Like everywhere finding a trades person for a small jobs is impossible. And here on the Cape you are competing with million dollars new homes. Question; which would a contractor rather work on plumbing for a million dollar cottage or a $200 job? Hmm... that's is a really tough decision.
It took me all fall to find an electrician to change everything back to the way the blueprints showed!

The Cape is waking up after the winter. After the plumber left I drove around to see what had changed, they repaved Rt. 6 though town, the work to open up Herring Cove to the ocean again is well along and the washout on the town pier, and most important Mac's on the Pier was open and I got lunch there, Clam Chowder and a cup of fresh squeezed lemonade and for supper the Red Barn supplied an Italian sub.
It is a whole different environment, at the pot store I was talking to the clerk and I said that the "no left turn season hadn't began yet and she knew exactly what I meant. And I write this a flock of turkeys are gobbling across the lawn.
New this year... What will happen to the Cape Cod National Seashore, they say, "we don't think" we will be impacted about Trump's and DOGE's cuts. The Provincetown Independent wrote that they only lost 3 positions but they still had 7 vacant positions that they stopped looking for replacements for.
Because of Trump's new J-1 visa policies, businesses are worried about finding staff.
Well time to pack and head home with a stop to get a breakfast of champions... Coffee and a donut.
As I was packing the car, what walks by on the street... a fox carrying a a bird of some type... at least he was walking facing traffic.
