I know that fashion may not be a top priority for everyone on the Vineyard, but let’s face it, there is a lot of style here.  It might not be the same as the big city, but we definitely have our own flair.  So, why not strut our stuff down the catwalk? Nestled between the Fashion Weeks of New York and Boston is our own Ma...

Think things are slowing down on this little island now that Labor Day has passed?  Hardly, get ready for four days filled with film and fun, Thursday, September 6th – Sunday, September 9th with the 7th Annual Martha’s Vineyard International Film Festival (MVIFF).  Think of this as our own little Sundance, but in an even ...

With Summer winding down, there are thoughts of up-Island adventures running through my mind. With that is the desire to have some more memorable times with friends and family  before the warm weather slips away. Always on the lookout for something new, I recently stumbled upon Beach Plum Bites at the The Beach Plum Restaurant...

Can we really take control of our own energy on Martha’s Vineyard?  The answer is yes, according to Vineyard Power, the Island’s energy co-operative.  It’s their mission to be our utility company, producing electricity from local, renewable resources, while advocating for and keeping the benefits within our community...

With the nights a little cooler and the wait for restaurants a little shorter, it’s time to go out and spend some time with friends.  I don’t know about you, but one of my favorite things to do is to grab sushi at the Lookout. For years, that has been a favorite spot of mine during the Summer and Fall months.  And while I...

I know it’s hard to believe, but Summer 2012 is almost over, and there are so many things left on my bucket list!  Why do June, July, and August go by so quickly? Luckily, this week I was able to cross one more thing off that list, a trip to the Featherstone Flea and Fine Arts Market in Oak Bluffs aka “the Featherstone Flea.” ...

It’s finally here, the Ag Fair!  There’s a bit more excitement in the air and the Island is packed with people. After all, who doesn’t love the fair, and we all have a favorite thing to do when there.  Something special that we look forward to all Summer long.  Whether it’s seeing all the animals, the skillet toss, t...

We’ve all gotten that call or email from friends or family, “Hey we’re coming to the Vineyard for the day this week.”  I don’t know about you, but my mind immediately starts racing and trying to figure out what I’m going to do to show them how amazing this place is. Lucky for me, there’s Facebook – an immediate resource for so...

  On Wednesdays at the Chilmark Community Center from the end of June to the end of August, there’s a special treat for kids of all ages, Cinema Circus.  Now in it’s fourth year,  and part of the well known Martha’s Vineyard Film Festival, it is certain to make your kids and the kid in you smile.  The...

    Last week when I was desparately trying to find a parking spot so I could make Point B’s weekly meeting, something interesting caught my eye — even more interesting than the family walking around in matching yellow Crocs (yuck). There was a cute little red sign tucked in the corner of the back of the building th...
