Marconi beach, Wellfleet, Ma

On my trip I visited a historical site. The site where the first US transatlantic wireless telegraph station was built in 1901. The first US wireless telegraph to be sent was for Edward VII the king of England at the time by Theodore Roosevelt our president at the time. Believe it or not the station also played a role in the saving of the titanic. This Wireless station sent a telegram to the Carpithia informing them about the Titanic which saved 740 of the Titanic’s passenger. Sadly this heroic station fell to its doom. The sand dune that is was built on collapsed due to erosion. But still today they honor it with plaques reminding people of the achievements that station accomplished. The view was just wonderful though so I was pleased to be standing in a historical spot to take the following pictures.
