Memorial Day Weekend - Sunday Night Downtown

It was on the cool side when I ventured downtown this evening, but that didn't stop the multitudes from going through the motions, acting as if summer is here, with an enthusiasm that belied the frigid air. But after this past horrific winter, who isn't eager for summer? Eventually the weather will catch up, I'm sure.



Eric is from California and has been working at Scoops for one week. It's his first time on the island, and so far, so good.


These siblings from Boston are 8, 6, 4, and 3. According to mom, most of her friends have four or five children, too. Maybe big families are coming back.


Down at the docks I found a few members of the Jackson clan, including Dennis, holding court aboard the Alison Lee.


Peter Jackson, fishing for squid.


Cute fisherboy.


It's Official: Summer 2014 has arrived.
