The Aquinnah children’s parade on July 4 will begin at 11 a.m. on Old South Road. The reviewing stand will be at the Murphy home near Moshup Trail. Always a fun time for the children and their families.
The Soloist will premier worldwide on Friday, April 24. It is based on a true story about a homeless schizophrenic pianist who lives on skid row in Los Angeles. He was a professionally trained musician and has dreams of playing at the Disney concert hall and by chance meets a journalist to make his dreams come true. The Soloist stars Jamie Foxx, Catherine Keener and Robert Downey Jr. The producer is Aquinnah’s own Gary Foster of East Pasture.
April Fools’ day came and went. About two years ago, though, the sign at West Basin disappeared. If you crossed the town line early in the wee hours on Wednesday, you would have noticed it was creatively placed over the entering Aquinnah sign, pointing one in the direction of West Basin. So we have faith that perhaps one day the entering Gay Head sign will also resurface.
Thank you to Mark Alan Lovewell for his superb writing regarding our Manning family home which was torn down on June 8. There will be two new modular homes arriving on July 8. One home will be for Paul, Theresa and Noah James Manning, and the other home will be my down-sized retirement abode. We are all grateful to keep the property in the Manning family and for the next generations to enjoy. In the meantime, I will look forward to frequent visits from my sisters Judith and Jyl.
