It’s officially spring now. My first daffodils are blooming. Snowdrops and crocuses are everywhere. After complaining about my eranthis a few weeks ago, I have found patches of it in unexpected spots around the yard. But best of all are the hellebores. Hellebores have become rather the rage the past few years. Most of my gardening friends are obsessed with them, as am I. Ginny Jones had begun collecting different varieties before she died, poring over catalogues, then over the plants themselves…
Heard on Main Street: Don’t compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about. I had a sad conversation with an old friend this week. Johanna Robichau had news about her husband, Joe Robichau, an Islander. He is not doing well; he is now living at Sunrise of Newton, a care facility. A card could be sent to 431 Washington St., Newton MA 02458. I hadn’t paid much attention, just felt a bit annoyed with the noise of leaf blowers when they worked for several neighbors…
“The beautiful spring came; and when Nature resumes her loveliness, the human soul is apt to revive also.” —Harriet Ann Jacobs Spring comes slowly to Martha’s Vineyard, but we can already feel it in the longer days and the increased warmth of the sun. The daytime temperatures now begin with a 4, or even a 5 — which feels practically balmy! I’ve been enjoying walking the Land Bank trail behind the school over to Farm Pond, and feel grateful for the workers who keep the trails open…
This past week seems to have been the pivotal week in feeling like not only is the island defrosting, but so are we. Once again, sunshine is the subject of this column, but after a long, dreary winter, what else do we really want to talk about? On the 28th at 6 pm at the Harbor View Hotel, you’ll find me having a culinary experience with local chefs, with proceeds supporting the Island Food Pantry. It’ll be a great time to connect with local chefs, chat with them about what they have in the works…
May his memory be a blessing. After a week where we wish we could wrench back time, and undo the unimaginable and heartbreaking death of Frank Edward Rodenbaugh, who would have celebrated his third birthday on May 31. To his parents, Matt and Julie, and his sister, Clare, we offer our condolences, love, and support. Honoring our anger and our grief while remembering the love and joy is hard. In the same week, came news that nine years after a chance meeting between Sydney McAuliffe and Charles Cunningham…
The Aquinnah Variety Show now has a firm date. Get out your calendars and mark the evening of May 1. Keep your eye out for details about when the doors open so you can be sure to get there early, as it is likely to be a packed house. Although the show is slated to last for about an hour and a half, rumor has it that there are 20 or so acts. Come on out and support your friends and neighbors, who are taking their courage into their hands and putting their hidden talents out for display. It promises…

Edgartown has selected Gary Kovack, the current Tisbury Harbormaster, to lead its harborfront. Kovack was nominated at a Edgartown Selectboard meeting on Monday for the harbormaster post, where he was chosen over two other finalists Kurt Peterson and Michael Gately. “It’s a tough decision but it’ll be good to have Kovack back in Edgartown,” said select board member Arthur Smadbeck on Monday, supporting Kovack’s nomination. Harbormaster Charlie Blair is retiring on March 27 after…
