Welcome to Week 50 – X Week: Pearls' Coastal Capers! Featuring: Xeriscaping, X-shape XERISCAPING My new word for the week … XERISCAPING. Had never heard of it until I started searching for X-week words. From what I understand it refers to a type of gardening that doesn't require irrigation. Because of the mulching and lack of nearby water supply, these flowers I found in a public garden on Cape last summer seem to be a good example of xeriscaping. When I first saw them I thought they were Lupine but after comparing them to photos online I actually think they are Veronica Spike Speedwell. X-SHAPE in fence Words beginning with the letter X are really hard to find so I'm substituting a photo that has the shape of an X in it. This December 2021 photo of a storm-battered fence at Forest Beach in South Chatham shows pickets collapsing onto each other, making the shape of an X in the center of the photo. X-SHAPE in lifeguard station And here's another photo that has the shape of an X in it … the base of the lifeguard station at Earle Road Beach in West Harwich. Thanks for joining me for Pearls' Coastal Capers - “X week”! A day without dance is .... just kidding. I have no idea!

Xeriscaping is becoming more popular year by year as folks become more & more concerned about conserving water. We have some awesome examples here in this semi-arid area.

I don't think I would want to sit on the lifeguard's stand, but I could sure sit and look at that scenery for a long time..... X shapes or not. I prefer a deserted beach to one that is crowded. Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

Thanks! I've been hoping to photograph some more beautiful sunrises over Nantucket Sound but lately the colors haven't seemed as vivid. I wonder if the season makes a difference. A day without dance is .... just kidding. I have no idea!

Absolutely! I carefully monitor both. Just thinking the time of year may have some effect as well but I haven't been photographing sunrises long enough yet to identify a trend. A day without dance is .... just kidding. I have no idea!
