Before I get to the pix from our first day, I want to mention a giveaway that is going on here. I love Carolee's work. We found each other by way of Martha's Vineyard/Hudson Valley Fiber Farms and Facebook. I love her work and think she is so talented. Not only do I want more people to know about her, I get an extra chance to win this amazing box by linking to the post here. (Heh, heh, heh.)
So here are the pix from our first day. Now, I usually don't call our travel day our first day because we get here too late to really do anything. Not this time. We were on a 12:15 ferry, which meant that we got here at about 1pm.
On the ferry we got to see a cool nest, the name of the bird escapes me now, but Emmett will remember. I'll ask later. The zoom on my camera is apparently on vacation, too, so you can only just see it behind the Sea Gulls:
Here you can see it a little better on the left of the pole.
Maeve Loved looking at the water through the hole in the side of the boat. That could sound like a bad thing ... the hole in the side of the boat.
I was so happy to get to Bunch Of Grapes. This is the Little Store That Could! It was closed from fire/water damage last year, then just a year after the fire, after hanging in and re-opening, it was struck by lightening just before the big summer season.
This is just because I love a beautiful hydrangea. And a beautiful hydrangea in Vineyard Haven is a slice of heaven!
This bird house is just neat! It's been here since I don't know when and I just think it's cool.
Another hydrangea, this one at my MIL's hotel.
My boy knows my heart! Wandering around my MIL hotel, he found a bunch of alpacas. They were juveniles and adorable! One of them kept bleating.
I didn't get on the computer last night because David was on for ages so I will about yesterday tonight. Also, typing with the splint is just annoying me way too much. Tomorrow I am going to a dye workshop with the most fabulous Susan Gibbs of MV/HV Fiber Farms. I am so excited I could squeal, but I wont because there are other people around and I don't want to embarrass Fiona.
