On the Vineyard, every day is Lobsterfest.

(OK, I admit, I only had lobster for 2 meals)

On the disc golf course on Martha’s Vineyard.

Steve brought Malort from Chicago for us to taste. Because he hates us, or at least our tastebuds.

With luck unplugging & re-plugging a bunch of connectors & ground lugs inside our washing machine (resetting 23 years of mild corrosion) fixed it. Either that or it needs this part, the motor controller: $857 used on eBay, in other words time for a new washer.

Sunrise from our cabin on our last day (for this vacation) in Vermont.

We evidently visited this tourist attraction on the right day.

I had never seen an indigo bunting in the wild before today. Click through for a 2nd picture, and what we think might be Mrs. Indigo Bunting.

Indian pipe is a non-photosynthesizing plant that parasitizes fungus for its nourishment. When a spot of sunlight hits it, it stands out in the forest like a beacon.
