There was a pretty good coastal snow storm, dumping six to eight inches across various parts of Martha’s Vineyard.

Today begins the second day of the Teddy Bear Suite.  Yesterday, dozens of people visited the Suite, room 201 at the Harbor View, and shared in the holiday magic.  Children went from room to room meeting all the bears, sharing hugs and enjoying the splendor surrounding them.  The teddy bears made a lot of people happ...

Before the doors open this afternoon at the Teddy Bear Suite in the Harbor View Hotel, we invited a couple little tykes to come and help us make sure that it was ready for the crowds.  If these cuties liked it, we knew were set for Christmas in Edgartown. The look on the faces of the little ones was priceless.  Every...
