These pictures were obviously not taken today.  Although the northeast is having sort of a non-winter, we are not experiencing green lawns and trees with leaves in the middle of January.

Vineyard Haven – Martha’s Vineyard

My daughter Deb is a twin. Sadly her sister Susan was only here for a few hours.

Katy (Katama) was Deb’s first Boykin Spaniel. She was the first dog to go on vacation with Deb and me, no big surprise that it was to MV.  Katy left us after 20 months and we feel that she’s now with Susan.

Chappy (Chappaquiddick) was Deb’s next Boykin Spaniel. He has been to MV nine times, so far.

We took lots of pictures of Chappy’s first trip to the Vineyard, especially on the beach and in the water. He really enjoyed splashing about and barking at waves. These pictures show a little of his fun at the beach.

And then there’s this picture:

Is this a double exposure, or is it Deb and Chappy with Susan and Katy ?   You be the judge.  Just let me say that my camera, not a digital one, had never, until that day, taken a double exposure and has never done so since !!

Happy Halloween !!!

This teeny Vineyard book is 1 inch square.  Untie the ribbon and it opens like an accordion.

There is a verse on one side…

101_5339
“The landscape of Martha’s Vineyard invites us daily to pause, to breathe and give our awareness to the splendor of our surroundings.  The soul of the land and the sea speaks in a silent language to our own souls, calling forth a feeling of connectedness and well-being, belonging and responsiveness.  We come to our senses and discover ourselves again in the grace, elegance and natural beauty of the island… Even if your visit here is brief , the Vineyard welcomes you home.”  -I.G.M.

And pictures on the other.

I’ve added in some of my own that sort of resemble the ones in the book.  I didn’t have any pictures of grazing cows so I substituted a goat friend of mine.

This was fun, I’m glad I rediscovered this teeny book today.  Thank you to the special person who gave it to me.
