It has been an interesting week...
Most of you who read these Posts or set foot on the Island, know Dorothy.
Dorothy is Lew's 1930 Ford Truck...she has her following.
Funny thing, as Lew prepared to bring in Mockingbird for her "commissioning"...Dorothy wouldn't start.
She just would not budge... finally, serious measures were applied. (What would we do without our tractor?)
When I opened the garage next morning it seemed that Mockingbird was indeed entrenched in prime territory...poor Dorothy (sigh).
Openings...
It's indeed Memorial Day weekend...restaurants & other Island businesses have opened &/or moved to full time schedules! Danish Mill is on a 7 day schedule...Shipyard's Sailor's Pub opened its doors on Thursday...Karly's Cellar Restaurant opened Friday...KK's restaurant is also an active place.
Down the road, the Red Cup is open into the afternoon...
Kathleen has opened her Island Time Books Shop - it's her 10th season!
The Island Bread Co. sign is up ...watch for the "Fresh Bread Today " announcement board by the road!
New this year in this area...
Fragrant Isle's Lavender Cart serving several types of gelato and other culinary treats.
Upcoming...
Van Gogh is coming to the TPAC this coming Friday. Here's one of his paintings. Although it may not be a "known" work, A Girl in White in the Woods, reminds me of the Island. (Oil on canvas 1882, Kroller-Muller Museum, Netherlands)
A Tribute to America!
On Tuesday, June 4, there is a 2:00pm & 6:30pm performance scheduled @ the TPAC - Come see King George, Daniel Boone, Andrew Jackson, President Lincoln, and even the Statue of Liberty. America's Story is presented by the Third through the Sixth Grade and as the photo above indicates, they want YOU to attend! Looks like a lot of fun! (Photo - Corey Van Der Weele)
Have a great week!
