MARTHA'S VINEYARD
Camp Association, a religious community with a large outdoor meeting tent and
"gingerbread houses" around it.
First beach stop: JAWS BRIDGE
Edgartown Beach

T.A.C.O.
Brunch at Morning Glory Farm
Aquinnah Cliffs Overlook
Gay Head Lighthouse
Menemsha Beach was not our favorite, but.....
the hike there was super cool!
As was the Swordfish Harpooner Statue
We made a stop at Lucy Vincent Beach and it was by far my favorite beach that we visited.
Beautiful stones, soft sand, amazing sunset.....but...... it was only open to residents or guests staying in Chilmark town. :(
The gatekeeper was super nice and told us that she would give us a few minutes to see it,
so we spent 15 lovely minutes there as the beach was closing soon anyway.
I can recommend staying in Chilmark just to get a pass here. It was beautiful!
Edgarton
South Beach and Katama/South Beach were HUGE favorites of the family. We went twice to this area because it was THAT nice! The south side of the island is definitely the best beaches. The sand is so soft and the waves really fun.
Oliver Street
Edgarton Commons was awesome. Kitchenette, and 1 and 2 bedroom condos.
Among the Flowers Restaurant
Waiting for our ferry time, we stopped by a sub-par beach in Oak Bluffs area.
Reminded us how lucky we were to swim at South Beach and visit Lucy Vincent.

LAKE WINNIPESAUKEE
We made a nice day of it visiting Lake Winnipesaukee. I've always wanted to see Wolfeboro. It was well worth the trip! We had lunch in this beautiful spot on the lake.
We got a great tip from the visitor center to visit
Abenaki Tower.
The views were amazing!
Great views from Castle on the Clouds as well!
NEWPORT, RHODE ISLAND
Another bucket list item checked!
The beautiful Newport Cliff Walk
We didn't tour Rough Point,
but saw the outside of the home and
learned about Doris Duke,
the owner and "the scandal"
The International Tennis Club
The Breakers
I had been here with Tim a few years ago, and it was fun to visit again.
MT. LAFAYETTE
The adults took a day to go hiking alone! 💛
Scott had been telling me about this amazing hike he did with his co-workers for a long time.
It really was amazing!
We went up the Falling Waters trail, along the ridges to Mt. Lincoln and Mt. Lafayette,
then down the Old Bridal Path, passing the Greenleaf Hut.

Thank you to the patient husbands who have wives who always need to
"look around the next corner" 😁
