I must say last Monday produced some memorable weather. Above the water, the sky was foreboding and downright scary.

I don’t know why last week’s freeze came as a surprise to me. It is the end of October afterall.

I cannot believe our good fortune here on the Vineyard. Floods, fires, hurricanes all around and yet we have been spared.

After a long, hot, humid and seemingly endless summer, fall temperatures and light are a welcome relief.

This past week, I noticed several Monarch butterflies fluttering around their bright orange flowers.

I know some of you think we have had rain of late.
