Orleans Photography Exhibit: The Rowland Scherman Project

Since President’s Day turned out to be a wet, windy experience here on Cape Cod, we decided to check out the small exhibit of photographer, Rowland Scherman, which was being presented right in Orleans. There is a great write-up in the Boston Globe, which details some of Scherman’s professional history, and how the project and exhibit came about.

The Rowland Scherman Project is a collaborative effort between Rowland Scherman, Bob Korn of Bob Korn Imaging and Dave and Meri Hartford of Artworks! Gallery. Together, they are working to take the original images and using state of the art digital technologies, scan and print the photographs with archival pigment inks on 100% rag paper.

With the holiday weekend past us, dogs are once again allowed on Nauset Beach and most of the seasonal businesses on Cape Cod are assessing the success (or failure) of another tourist season on the Cape.

20 Reasons To Visit Cape Cod This Summer

With the holiday weekend just passed and the summer season swinging into gear, here are 20 reasons why you should consider vacationing on Cape Cod this summer.

  • No More Rotary At The Sagamore Bridge
    Okay, leaving Cape Cod over the Memorial Day weekend was a bit difficult, but I believe traffic congestion will improve going forward, once people get more familiar with the construction (or deconstruction).

Photos From Our Trip to Newport, Rhode Island

I’d been hesitant to incorporate non-professional material into this website, but I’ve since changed my mind. Hopefully some of these kinds of entries will add to a more positive experience when visitors read entries on Cape Cod SEO. Your feedback and comments are appreciated.

Photographs taken from our trip to Newport, Rhode Island - Memorial Day weekend. I’m waiting for my Flickr account to be approved from Yahoo, so I hopefully will be able to upload some additional photographs soon (does anyone know how long that takes?). If you have not been there, I highly recommend it. In addition to the famous Newport mansions, there is a great downtown area with restaurants, shopping and activities.

In case it was not obvious, my wife and I enjoyed touring the mansions ;-).

Danger Zones: Five Most Dangerous Vacation Destinations

Your in-laws are not on this list. Also excluded are the obvious places where Americans just aren’t welcome, like Iraq and North Korea. And the potential for an accidental faceplant while body boarding on Nauset Beach doesn’t count either. But if a vacation is not a vacation unless you’ve had a few Fear Factor moments, and living to tell the tale is half the fun of coming home, you might want to keep reading. The following is a short list of the some of the most dangerous places in the world to take a vacation.

Cape Cod Homeowners Insurance Forum

I’m not a homeowner on Cape Cod, but am looking at purchasing a home this year and have friends and family that own homes across the Mid to Lower Cape Cod areas. One key concern has been the issue of finding affordable home insurance rates in the area. From a renter’s perspective, while rates have not increased tremendously, I have had to rewrite my insurance policy twice in the past 18 months.

Notes From SES NY: Retailers Forum and Q&A

Late Thursday afternoon I stumbled unto the Retailers’ Forum - a question and answer-like session which included speakers specifically related to the Retail Industry (and e-commerce). I decided to head to the session based on the fact that getting some advice and interaction from successful online retailers could be more beneficial to the small B2C business, especially some of those found on Cape Cod.

Moderated by Allan Dick of Vintage Tub & Bath, the Retailer Forum featured a group of online retailers, with a wide decent range of product offerings and company sizes. I was slightly disappointed that all four independent retailers were mostly related to the retail home and home furnishings industry, but they all were involved in the questions and answers asked, and provided good depth of information in their answers.

Yahoo Answers To Your Small Business Online Strategy

Understandably. there are precious few opportunities for the small business owner to actually take some time in the day to catch up on the news, email, industry information etc. With the online landscape shifting to a much more collaborative and community-based environment, there are opportunities waiting online for the small business owner to get their message out to individuals and groups interested in the expertise, knowledge and competitive value. Search Engine Land recently had an article on 7 ways to improve your search visibility through social media. Chief amongst them was an often overlooked avenue for potential lead generation and communication with people online that already have a definitive interest in what you are selling/what you are in business for: Yahoo Answers.
