I was so disappointed when Amy Levine closed her fabulous store on Main street, It’s In the Bag. But how delighted I was to pass by today and see a young woman hard at work inside and a sign on the window: “Coming Soon! Island Music.” This will definitely be a welcome addition to our town.
The tables have turned again. I took a head start on school vacation last Thursday and drove down to my Old Country with Iole’s three granddogs to help her out for a week. Let me tell you, toothaches don’t go away.
How heartbreaking to see the holes on Main street! Our sympathy goes to the owners of Moxie and the Bunch of Grapes. Although Café Moxie was under new management, both buildings and businesses have been long traditions. Certainly, the Bunch of Grapes is my favorite bookstore in the world. I remember Café Moxie when it was Popeye’s. Let us know what we can do to help.
I am so pleased to receive so many lovely holiday cards and family news from my friends. You know many of them.
Just to update you, Eileen Whiting, our former town treasurer, wrote from Florida that she is well and delighted to have Marjorie Convery in the neighborhood now. I can picture them playing golf while we shovel snow.
