It is snowing! Just a wet flurry but it is beautiful to see it coming down outside the windows.
It is dawn here on Chappy. Night dark is giving way to the soft golds and velvet blues of a clear morning.
Last Sunday could have been a summer day at Wasque.
I am so saddened to report the passing of Chappaquiddick resident Allyson Getsinger on Oct. 18 after a 10-month battle against cancer.
This past Monday was Indigenous’ Peoples Day. Let us for a moment, remember the history of Chappaquiddick, an island named for the Wampanoag word tchepi-aquidenet, meaning “separate island”.
Many thanks to Peter for covering the column for an extra week while my family and I took a much needed vacation off-Island.
Most mornings I am up early, often just as the sun begins to rise.
In summers past, this was the week of Illumination Night and the Oak Bluffs fireworks. The fair would already be behind us.
Keep doing your rain dances, all.
Blueberry season is here!
