Sailing to Martha's Vineyard!

 We wanted to get back to the Vineyard, and found a great weekend to do it - in late October!
 Bolts came with us on this trip & did great!!  The seas were pretty big on Friday, when we sailed.  But we made good time!!
 Went to bed early on Friday!!  We stayed in the Oak Bluffs marina.  They were already closed for the season, but electricity & water were still on - yay!

We rented a Jeep on Saturday, so we could see more of the island.  We wanted to rent bikes, but we didn't want to leave Bolts.  Some fall festivals were happening.  Beautiful day - mid 60's.
 Bolts enjoyed the drive :)
 Edgartown!

 Then we headed towards Gay Head

 Gay Head Cliffs
 Gay head lighthouse
 Me & Bolts
 Then we stopped at Menemsha on the way back to town
 It's a tiny tiny harbor town
 Made a pit stop at Alley's General Store!


 Then on to our favorite beach - Lamberts Cove!!

 Bolts loved being on the beach & went a little nuts
 He ran & ran & ran

 We finally got Bolts off the beach & made a final pit stop in Vineyard Haven
 Then we headed back to Oak Bluffs & our sailboat!  Bolts was pooped!!
