Cecelia & Lisa aboard Endeavor
Late summer in picturesque Nantucket with my mom. Hydrangeas a week or two past their prime. Rain, fog, and a crisp breeze. Walks in town and along the ‘Sconset Bluff Walk. Lighthouses and an evening sail. Cozy restaurants and an upbeat night with The Elovaters at The Chicken Box. Packed three rain jackets; bought two sweatshirts. Spent many hours navigating cobblestones in my rubber mocs. Learned about history and whaling and lightship baskets. Been wanting to come here for more than 15 years, and I’m so glad I finally did!
