The Vineyard becomes a place of light in this season and offers opportunity to greet friends under the cheery lights of Main street in Vineyard Haven.
At times such as Christmas, the Vineyard more than ever stands as a place apart from the mainland: not a noisy cataclysm of glitz and commercialism, but rather a haven of quiet greetings, of informal friendship, of personal connections renewed and strengthened.
