The island on an island.

 Last posting, I mentioned that we made a trip out to the home of Jim's client. Here are a few shots of the place. It's located on Esther's Island, which is a tiny spit of sand way out on the west end of Nantucket. Can you say Private? The view from the deck is of a private beach and the Atlantic. We brought our lunch with us as we walked 20 minutes out to the house. No car access. The owner has a boat mooring out front. So we assume that's how he gets to the home. But how was it built? Do refrigerators swim?
Check out the outdoor fireplace and the beautiful living room. It's very 'Architectural Digest' to say the least.




So then it was back to reality. And Jim was back at work in Edgartown. A group of 12 meter's boats arrived for a series of racing. These are all older 'America's Cup' boats from years past. Among them were Courageous, Intrepid, Westerly and others.
After Jim's work was well in hand we decided to begin our trip home. We got up early and headed out of Edgartown harbor under a beautiful, but cloudy, morning sky. Next stop...Cuttyhunk.
