Hello All!

I will spare you my usual verbiage this time in favor of a quick update as I catch up on different things, including my guitar studies and drawings (well, more like doodling). My inner Renaissance woman has been texting me like crazy, demanding attention.

We have spent several days in Nantucket - and enjoyed it immensely. The first couple of days where very windy but once past those it's been a summer treat. The natural beauty of this boomerang-shaped island is stunning. We did one of the longer bike paths (loading the bikes onto the dinghy and taking them to shore was no small feat, due to wind and chop) all along Polpis Road to Sankaty Light, on the south-east part of the Island. A two-hour and change round trip ride and totally worth it, with the scent of the vegetation and fresh air filling your lungs.

We've had our full soak in local history, including the beautiful Whaling Museum and a visit to the oldest buildings on the islands; we've successfully blended in with some... unique artistic installations in town, spent time on a gorgeous little beach even putting our feet in the water without freezing, incredibile, and have been amused by the fashions showcased by the people walking around. Ah, the Vanity Fair flavor of it all! The highlight of the visit to Martha's Vineyard also involved biking and it was our expedition to Oak Bluffs, with all those charming and colorful Victorian gingerbread houses! What a contrast with the mansions-on-steroids you could see at anchor in Edgartown😂! Biking back, you could see these shining-white herons in the marshes what majestic birds. And definitely to be mentioned are the beautiful, both classics and contemporary designs of sailing boats that you see in the harbor, as they prepare to go off on a regatta or as they come back at the end of the day, their crew ready to stow away everything and go party at the local club...
