We’d like to hit the pause button on summer. Thing is, we haven’t finished our summer reading. Truthfully, we haven’t started it.

Don’t know about you, but we are loving these sunny summer temperatures! Mirroring the weather, music, happy mayhem and comedy heat up the entertainment scene on Martha’s Vineyard.

The water is warm (76 degrees, taken this morning in Edgartown Harbor by dedicated Gazette staffers), little Optis scootch around Vineyard Haven Harbor (right), and beach parking lots are filling up early.

All over the island, blueberries are ripening, but you don’t need to pick your own. The annual Blueberry Festival at the West Tisbury Congregational Church is Saturday at noon. All the blueberry treats you could dream of await: Try the blueberry-peach cobbler or the blueberry-pomegranate smoothie. Sip on blueberry iced tea and take home a blueberry […]

This week we’re going to get out on the water and out on the dance floor. We’re also going for a bicycle tour of Chappy and catching a performance of the Cowboy Junkies. In fact, we think these five events make for a pretty great Vineyard week, but for a full calendar of events, you […]

“Is it so nice as all that?” asked the mole, shyly. “Nice? It’s the only thing,” said the Water Rat solemnly, as he leaned forward for his stroke. “Believe me, my young friend, there is nothing — absolutely nothing — half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.” “Simply messing…about in boats—or […]
