Amity Island

It started as an addiction to everything remotely related to my favorite movie (Jaws), but became my favorite annual tradition, weekend trip to Martha’s Vineyard.  After an hour ferry ride, you check your frowns at the dock.  It’s a combo of the shelly beaches, salty breezes, crystal water, long bike paths, loud harbors, vibrant ice cream shops, cozy breweries, piles of seafood, hand painted typographic signs, dog friendly streets, and countless smiles that make it one of my favorite places.
