I am a Vineyard-a-holic.   My mother was raised there and began bringing me to Martha’s Vineyard when I was less than a year old.

I love to be there and when I’m not there I think about being there.

This blog began in 2007 and was strictly about my love of Martha’s Vineyard.  I wrote about news and happenings on the Vineyard, I included personal stories, and from time to time threw in a little Vineyard history.

Little by little though I branched out and wrote about other things and also posted more photographs.  I’m still just as obsessed with the Vineyard but like to include other things from time to time.

I live in NJ with my family and try to get to the Vineyard as often as I can.

I’m interested in genealogy and in researching my ancestors have found out that on my mother’s side we go back to the Pilgrims who came to America on the first voyage of the Mayflower.  On my father’s side I found that I’m related to one of the founders of Newark, New Jersey which is where I was born.  I love that my roots go so deep into American history.

Any questions about MV are welcome.

Enjoy 🙂
