Air Station Cape Cod Galley has gone downhill with the addition of a new cook. The old cook has…read morebeen stationed somewhere else. My husband who is a retired Air Force Colonel called to ask what the new cook was serving for lunch and he was told "stuffed pig's belly" which is an insult and will be reported. The new cook also has the option of using or not using MSG and chooses to use it when he knows my husband is highly allergic to it (life threatening). What the cook does not realize is that MSG is not only life threatening to those who are allergic to it but will cause brain lesions in 20 years in normal people so if he is eating it karma will get him, too,

History and…read moreconvenience The very first idea for a library in the town of Falmouth was back in 1792. At first the books were stored where ever there was room and eventually ended up in the town hall. The library finally got a permanent home in 1901. As the town grew the need for a larger library also become obvious. So in 1966 an addition was completed. And again in 1978 another addition was added. And finally in 2008 major renovations took place and now the library is a whole lot larger than the original one but still has the charm of the very first building. The library is beautiful, both inside and out and the additions and renovations blend in extremely well with the original concept so it can be difficult to see exactly where the addtions were added. The seal of the town of Falmouth is even embedded on a dome in the ceiling. The library has lots of very comfy place to sit or study as well as a great local history room, kids department and community room. A lovely and very useful library that has grown along with the town.

We went to this library a lot when our kids were little. They loved it and we loved it. We had not…read morebeen back for a while but wanted to see how it had fared in recent years. It's a small town library that's really crowded during summer tourist season and never used to be crowded at all in the off season when we were often in town. It was jam packed on a cool drizzly summer day. It still has a large lower level children's section. And it is still the place to be with wonderful creative updates. The book areas are nicely delineated by age groups and book styles and there are lots of inspiring posters even on office and closet doors. A creative playhouse is at one end. A local garden having a butterfly release on Saturday was nicely featured with all the details of the event and displayed many correlated books. The librarians were very helpful and parents circulated through the areas with their kids. There did seem to be lots of locals socializing with each other but also some obvious tourists enjoying the facility. The building still has lots of historic charm but there are updates to some areas as well as the exterior. There appeared to be an addition since we were last here and we heard maybe yet another in the near future. Parking was a real problem this week but I would guess they can handle the off season/school year just fine.

Kitchens closets and…read morelibraries The first library in West Falmouth started back in the 1870s when a group of young ladies got together to discuss books, literary and music stuff and slowly started donating their own private collections. Bu the end of the decade the group had over 50 books that they stuck into a kitchen closet. Finally people realized that a kitchen closet would never do as a library, so some creative volunteers built a small "real" library. The collection of books and materials kept growing and it became obvious that the poor little building was about to burst . So a new an larger library was planned, funded and constructed The new library was opened in 1896 and still serves as the town library. The library is mostly privately funded and receives only a small amount of money from the town. Of course changes and additions were incorporated over the years and now the library is a truly lovely place. Lots of fantastic woodwork, great pictures, lovely art, historical photographs and a very cool garden outside. And of course like most small town libraries West Falmouth also served as a community center and a place people in the town discuss important issues and kids come to play. A wonderful library that serves the town well.

Growing up in Falmouth I have spent a lot of time coming to and from this particular dump. This dump allows you to drop off not only grass clippings but leaves and other seasonal yard clippings at no cost. In the past this dump has been amazing because the staff was always making sure the dump piles weren't so massive that it made it difficult to drop off a load. This weekend when I visited I was a bit let down because the town has let this dump slip away a bit. The road into the dump needs to be graded and it was full of potholes. The dump piles were also so large that it made it difficult to find a safe place to drop off while not being in other people's way. Overall, this place has been much better in the past and could definitely get back to that point if the staff gave it a little TLC.

We came to purchase a dump sticker for a family member and overall were dissapointed by the rude staff. This time around the experience was very different in a good way. I stopped in this afternoon to purchase our beach stickers. The staff at the front desk was polite and when I got to the window I needed the cashiers were also very pleasant. One of our registrations still had our old address and they went out of their way to look up our information to provide us the sticker. In the end, I'm happy with the visit and hope that this track record continues. The only dissapointment with this town hall is that it can be incredibly tough to get them on the phone.
