| Kite Surfer on Sengekontacket |

| Nantucket Sound |
Taking advantage of a perfect fall day in late September I set off for Oak Bluff, a 20 mile round trip bike ride. One reason I love this particular ride is that it snakes along the beach with beautiful vistas of Sengekontacket Pond on one side and the Nantucket Sound on the other.

| East Chop Light overlooking Nantucket Sound |
It is the ride our family took on our first visit to the Vineyard in the summer of 1996. Although I had received email alerts that Steamship Authority boats were being diverted from OB to Vineyard Haven, it didn't register how windy it was until I had reached my destination of the East Chop Lighthouse and turned around to head home. 5 miles in and I was wishing I had some money to hop on the bus, bike and all. Battling a headwind the entire 10 miles, I made it back tired and sweaty.
