The Alliance’s gallery and classrooms are located in the historical old Sandwich Town Hall, which has recently been renovated and restored – this exhibit is part of its grand re-opening.   Located near the Sandwich Glass Museum (where they have daily glass blowing demonstrations) Heritage Museum and Gardens (which has antique cars and a vintage indoor carousel) and a very walkable Main Street, it is definitely worth a day trip if you are vacationing on the Cape.   The Sandwich Art Alliance is open Tuesday through Saturday, 11am – 4pm.   Fariview View, Groton, 2026   The opening Reception is on August 13, 2026 from 5:30-7:30pm.   The old Town Hall before the renovation.   I’m glad that a Groton painting is getting attention. Fairview Orchards in Groton, MA, has a small seasonal farm stand on Higley Street near the Groton School. My painting shows the view from the stand as you look out onto Farmer’s Row, a beautiful street with views across the valley to Mount Wachusett.     “Fairview View” accepted to the Sandwich Arts Alliance’s annual June Kershaw juried exhibit August 5 - September 8, 2026. 2026-08-02T15:39:00+00:00 http://capecoddaily.com/news/346441/ http://capecoddaily.com/news/346441/#When:12:37:30Z via WordPress Tag Cape Cod It was a full day at the Cape on that August day in 2023. I spent part of the day taking photos with a 830nm Infrared filter. It gives photos a otherworldly effect. This is a photo of the Coast Guard Station at Coast Guard Beach on the National Seashore of Cape Cod. This photo was taken during the day.   Infrared       Beach Fire   Later that evening we had a beach fire with members of my family. This requires getting a permit from the National Park Service and finding firewood, something which is not easy to do on an spit of land that basically sand. My nephew managed to find some, and we enjoyed a lovely evening on a warm summer night as we watched a moonrise over the ocean.       The brilliant white light is coming from a fishing boat, sadly not a UFO as I first thought   Family           History of the Coast Guard Station   One of the original nine stations was constructed at Nauset. It was located about 350 yards southeast of the present building. Shoreline erosion compelled the construction of a new station. The old station remained in service until 1937, when it was replaced by the present structure. The present building was in service as a Coast Guard Station until 1958.   The building is now the Cape Cod National Seashore’s residential environmental education program facility. Known as NEED, it offers educational groups an opportunity to experience the natural and historical wonders of Cape Cod. The building is not open to the general public, but visitors are able to walk around the grounds and enjoy the ocean views.    Information from the Eastham Historical Society     “Fairview View” accepted to the Sandwich Arts Alliance’s annual June Kershaw juried exhibit August 5 - September 8, 2026. 2026-08-02T12:37:30+00:00 http://capecoddaily.com/news/346440/ http://capecoddaily.com/news/346440/#When:05:23:55Z via Cape Wide News YARMOUTH – From Yarmouth Police: Join the Yarmouth Police Dept. and other local Yarmouth departments next week for National Night Out!

The driver eventually pulled into the parking lot of a closed package store and appeared to possibly strike a parking curb. The adult male driver looked unsteady during field sobriety tests and was arrested for operating under the influence of liquor. He was reportedly in town for a wedding — which may explain the snazzy shoes and sleek attire. He remained fully cooperative with officers on scene. HN Reminder: The initial details contained in the above report are based on radio transmissions and information from police sources. The defendant is presumed to be innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.     ABOVE: Swatting Call Around 1:30 a.m. Saturday, Barnstable Police officers responded to Kimber Woods Apartments on Route 132 after an anonymous male caller claimed he was schizophrenic and had possibly just shot his three family members. The apartment listed in the call had a history of domestic incidents. Heavily armed officers approached on foot, already suspecting a hoax but treating the call as genuine. Unable to reconnect with the anonymous number, they reached the current occupants through a legitimate contact in department records. Two residents were called out while officers conducted a quick search of the residence for any signs of a crime scene. It proved to be a hoax — a classic “swatting” call.

Earlier, a Barnstable Police patrolwoman had been flagged down by a motorist who reported seeing three masked males jump into a downtown wooded area. She investigated but was unable to locate them. A short time later, around 3 a.m., the plainclothes officer spotted the trio while patrolling downtown. Hyannis News was just around the corner and responded to the scene. Upon exiting the vehicle, HN heard the officer warn one of the males not to touch a knife. As the officer moved to secure the weapon, the male suddenly pulled away and tried to flee. A tussle ensued. Not wanting to see anyone get hurt (especially since the officer was alone with three suspicious males), HN immediately assisted the officer until the situation was under control. All three individuals were juveniles. The male who attempted to flee was arrested and transported to Barnstable Police Headquarters on multiple charges, including resisting arrest and providing a false name, according to a source. The other two raised their hands and fully cooperated. Both were taken to the front lobby of the police station to be released to their parents. In the end, no one was injured. The Barnstable Police Department is investigating.

Cape & Islands District Attorney Robert J. Galibois announced that Alexander Keen Grant, 55, also known as “Keen Grant” and “Eric Raymond,” of New Orleans, appeared in Barnstable Superior Court on July 29, 2026. Following a revocation hearing, he was held without bail. He is scheduled for a pretrial hearing on September 22, 2026. The case dates to June 2012, when Yarmouth police began investigating a sexual assault. Grant was staying with family members in Yarmouth at the time. Prosecutors allege he provided alcohol and made sexually inappropriate comments to the 15-year-old victim, then placed his hands on her body and forced her hand onto a part of his body. Later that night, authorities allege, he entered her bedroom and sexually assaulted her while commenting on how attractive and mature she was. Grant faced three counts of aggravated rape of a child and two counts of indecent assault and battery on a person over 14. His trial was set for November 12, 2014, in Barnstable Superior Court. He failed to appear, and a warrant was issued. He quickly landed on the Massachusetts State Police Most Wanted list and remained at large for the next 11 years. On February 6, 2026, New Orleans police arrested him under the alias Eric Raymond on unrelated charges. With assistance from the New Orleans Police Department, Orleans Parish Sheriff’s Department, and Orleans Parish District Attorney’s Office, authorities confirmed his true identity. While living in Louisiana under the false name, Grant had married and fathered a child. The Massachusetts State Police Detectives Unit assigned to the Cape and Islands District Attorney’s Office and the Violent Fugitive Apprehension Section (VFAS) helped secure his return through the rendition process. On July 29,2026, Alexander Keen Grant was held without bail after a hearing in the Barnstable Superior Court. He is scheduled to appear in the Barnstable Superior Court for a pretrial hearing on September 22, 2026. Assistant District Attorney Courtney Leigh Scalice, chief of the Child Abuse and Vulnerable Victims Unit, is prosecuting the case, which was originally investigated by the Yarmouth Police Department. District Attorney Galibois praised the cross-jurisdictional cooperation and tireless efforts that brought Grant back to face the charges. “The unwavering commitment of law enforcement agencies working together across jurisdictional lines” made the return possible, he said. In their statement, the Cape and Islands District Attorney’s Office reiterated that all defendants are presumed innocent.

A storm is comingThere are no leaves left. Stripped by past storms and seasons, the limbs appear fragile, ready to snap.   But you have walked this path for years, and every tree still stands. None lostto wind and rain and exposure. It appears roots not only run deep, but are stronger than we know.   About this poem.   About trees on a beach bluff (the photograph was taken on Cape Cod.). About the strength of our own roots (which can be good or bad.) About faith. About love that has had time to grow roots.   Poetry is never about one thing.   Tom     “Fairview View” accepted to the Sandwich Arts Alliance’s annual June Kershaw juried exhibit August 5 - September 8, 2026. 2026-07-26T16:38:20+00:00 http://capecoddaily.com/news/346396/ http://capecoddaily.com/news/346396/#When:13:26:42Z via Cape Wide News BOURNE – Three people were injured, two seriously in a rollover crash on the Scenic Highway (Route 6) in Bourne about 6:45 AM Sunday.

Upon arrival, officers encountered a woman visiting from Brooklyn, New York, yelling at another woman who was crying and bleeding slightly from one of her eyebrow piercings. When asked, she told officers she did not need an ambulance. It was uncertain who the actual combatants were, as a number of bar patrons were already leaving the area. Officers tried to learn what had just happened, but all of the women were speaking at the same time. In one of the above photos, a patrolman in a late-arriving squad car asked one of the officers on scene what had occurred; the officer on the sidewalk could only shrug. In the end, with emotions slightly more settled and the brawl in the bushes not having occurred in their presence, all the officers could do was ensure everyone was okay and wish them a safe journey home. Peace had been restored, and it was on to the next call for our long-suffering police officers… (No arrests were made.)           ABOVE: “Lost in Translation…” When the investigating officer asked the translator to have the driver stand with his hands at his sides, the driver bent over and began touching his toes. A short time after the bars closed, a Barnstable patrolman working the west side of Hyannis attempted to stop a vehicle traveling north on Pitchers Way. The vehicle was slow to pull over, forcing the officer to activate his siren. It eventually stopped near the intersection with Mitchell’s Way. The driver spoke little English, so the patrolman used a cellphone Portuguese translation service to conduct field sobriety tests after suspecting him of operating under the influence. The driver appeared unsteady on his feet, and officers had to halt one of the exercises so he would not fall and risk injury. Anderson Luan Godinho Barreiros, 36, currently residing in Hyannis, was arrested and charged with operating a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol.

The defendant is presumed to be innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.   ABOVE: ‘I’M GOING TO KILL SOMEONE!’ At around 2:20 a.m. this morning, a plainclothes Barnstable Police patrolman was flagged down by a woman on Main Street in Hyannis about a man screaming that he was going to kill someone. The officer made contact with the alleged homicidal screamer in front of the JFK Museum. The man, who is currently homeless in Hyannis, was taken into protective custody and brought back to police headquarters to sleep it off…   ABOVE: Sergeant Stops Vehicle with a “Kid” on Top At around 2:15 a.m. Friday morning, July 25, 2026, a Barnstable Police sergeant was monitoring Route 28 traffic in Hyannis when he noticed a Ford Explorer traveling westbound with a juvenile male on its roof. He quickly stopped the SUV and ordered the teen down. All four occupants were minors, including the 17-year-old driver. The driver claimed he was unaware his rear passenger had climbed out onto the vehicle’s roof… at least that was his story, and he stuck to it. The sergeant gave all of the occupants — especially the rear roof climber — a stern talking-to, telling them to make smarter, safer decisions. After a good lecture, the juveniles were sent on their way with a warning. Note: HN decided to publish the above, only slightly obscured photo of the vehicle and teens in the hope that the teens’ parents will see it and reinforce the sergeant’s words of caution… (sorry lads, it’s just that I don’t want to see you dead!)
