Today we took to the road. I tried out my new camera and Sarah tried out sweets and snacks. We ended up in Ptown for dinner and enjoyed perusing the town before the summer crowds arrive. Most shops were open and it was breezy and cool.
As usual we took a seat in front of the town hall(which is under construction) to people-watch while soaking in some fudge.
This afternoon "Ellie" was singing on the sidewalk. Ellie is a transvestite performer in PTown. She has a great voice and it is enjoyed by all who are strolling by. She sings the oldies, like 'Moon River".
Today Sarah apparently decided she had listened enough and she was ready to be the backup singer. She let it rip. Singing loudly in her little way. Ellie took a glance her way and gave her a big smile and a wink. Sarah went on and on. And Ellie, god bless her, was great about it. Because Sarah can be quite loud (not to mention entirely out of tune!) when she gets going. Ellie was sweet and graceful, and kept on singing, along with my girl. My instinct was to wisk Sarah away or crawl under the nearest bench, but I sat proud and let her do her thing. While everyone listened. And it was fine. More than fine, actually.
And that's one of my favorite thing about Provincetown. Not only is it home to me, it is open to all. And everything goes and everyone is accepted.
So we fit right in.
And also, it's home.
