what mainland is it connected to????

i believe a canal separates it from the mainland giving it water on all sides, not just three
Manmade canal. Doesn't count.

We had to call our 2nd game off at halftime tonight. Only the last play, a kid was trying to recover a fumble and suffered a severely broken arm. It was horrible, his arm was bent back behind him, he wouldn't stop moving so we could try and help him, and the screaming oh man the screaming. That screaming will stay in my head a while. I've dealt with a lot of broken bones over the years, but this was the worst. His arm was basically jello. Coach from the other team is a emt and had his bag so he was able to splint it.

So Cape Cod was a peninsula that was turned into a man made island but is still a Cape.

Seems like you're incorrect.

Is Cape Cod now an island?
Upon the completion of the canal separating the Cape from mainland Massachusetts in 1916, Cape Cod was officially declared an island, not a peninsula. Access is now possible via bridges and ferries.

Last day of work before heading up to New England.

I packed almost everything last night since my Son has baseball practice tonight. I just have a few things left and the car to pack.

It's a natural peninsula with a manmade canal dividing it.

Not an island

Because I said so.

Go back to your worse than Boston fans, Astros fans thread and come talk to me when you won 4 World Series in 5 years, not brag about 2 in 6; one of them cheating on the way there.

I wrote the Naval Station Newport Fire Department to see if I could come by Monday morning to photograph their apparatus. They have a Pierce Ascendant Tower.
