RV Trip Favorite Photos #204-209

Jim says:

While Mary and I are taking care of business here at her home…there is little “new stuff” to Blog about daily. So I’ve decided to share with you some of my favorite photos from our recent 298 day, 16,000+ mile RV trip around the United States.

Since scenery and people snapshot-type photos require little special photography skills…and being limited by the abilities of my digital camera…I none the less took some photos that I really liked. They are presented in no special order of favoritism.

Today’s photos were taken at Edgartown on the eastern end of the island of Martha’s Vineyard off the southern coast of Massachusetts on June 11, 2010……

In other news…
62 degrees and showers.

Edgartown On The Island Of Martha’s Vineyard

Jim says:

Yesterday Mary and I went to Edgartown on the island of Martha’s Vineyard under cloudy skies and a cool 62 degrees. It’s the largest town on the island (population-wise) with a 2000 census of 3,779 and the county seat of Duke County. It was one of the leading whaling ports in the 1800’s. It was also widely filmed during the making of the movie Jaws in 1974.

Here’s a few photos…

An old building on a side street in Edgartown.

A young family fishes from the main dock.

The Edgartown Lighthouse on the water passage between Martha’s Vineyard and Chappaquiddick Island.

A pretty shop front.

The three car ferry approaches Chappaquiddick Island.

After completing our visit to Edgartown, we took the ferry to Chappaquiddick Island. See tomorrow’s blog entry!
