Tuesdays Will be Different

Labor Day is next week and now the season begins to change. This is the season of decrescendo, when the swamp maples turn red, wild grapes and beach plums ripen and bluefish begin to run again near the shore.

And as the pulse of the Island changes, so too the pace changes at the Gazette, as we prepare to end the twice-weekly publication cycle that began in early June. Today is the last Tuesday paper, until next June of course, and we would like to take a moment to extend warm thanks to our many loyal readers near and far. Thanks for staying with us, and of course we will still be with you on Fridays for the next eight months, with all the best news coverage and advertising that Gazette readers have come to expect and to depend on in their community newspaper.

It’s something that we have done for one hundred and sixty-three years.
