A fairly early riser, I am enjoying the quiet of the morning (even though it's raining, again) and reminiscing of my recent trip to MVY.
It was fun to leave the cold of Florida and venture to the cold of New England. With the exception of a little snow it wasn't very different -- the ground is brown, the trees are bare, the sky is gray. Or so I thought until I awoke my first day on the island. From my room I overlooked the glistening Edgartown Harbor as the sun peeked over the horizon to a fresh two inches of snow. I was thrilled until I went to the car and had to brush snow and ice from the windows. A not so small detail I forgot about many years ago.
I love MVY in any season!
I have never been on MVY in February, and although the ferry was full, the island seemed empty. Almost all the shops and restaurants are either closed for the season, or closed for the month for updating, repair, or for the owners to just get away for awhile. Luckily my favorite coffee shop was still open for a few more days.
I enjoyed a nice brisk, long walk (didn't see one other person for an hour). I walked by our property...

checked out the summer rental....
Home for summer 2010.
So very beautiful and peaceful. I headed back to town for a movie (Valentine's Day), a cozy dinner at the hotel bar, and an early bedtime.
Back in PVB (still cold) I can only dream of summer on MVY.
