Summer Scenes

I'm back! This post is going to be a short one - I just wanted to share a few photos that really show what Nantucket Summer is all about. 


Obviously (or perhaps not THAT obvious to those that have not spent any time on Nantucket during the summer) it is not summer without some good old fashion bonfires, charcoal grills, and pallets stacked up on the beach to fuel that fire. 


Summer, to me, is spending endless days and nights on the beach, sipping on a cold beverage, and laughing with friends and family. Watching the sunset on the beach may just be the best feeling in the world, no doubt about that. The warm air turns cool enough to cozy up in your favorite sweatpants and sweatshirt, and wrap up in a blanket. The soft rush of the waves breaking in the background, the burgers sizzling on the grill, and the sight of the ferry passing through the sound are what summer is to us Nantucket Natives. Sounds too good to be true? Here are some photos for you to help wrap your brain around it.
