Dawn broke foggy this morning, and the Steamship Wharf in Oak Bluffs will be lined with children for the Kids Derby. This week kite surfers raced through whitecaps on Sengie taking advantage of September winds. Further inland some leaves are just beginning to turn, dropping scarlet and yellow leaves onto moss carpets. In the meadows and along the hillsides, goldenrod has emerged in great waves of lemon and ochre.

Fall is a wonderful time on the Vineyard.
