Almost Here!!!

Our families have started to arrive and we are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the rest of you. The weather is absolutely perfect - a chance of rain on Friday, clearing up again for Saturday. Bring a sweater or fleece, because the evenings are lovely and cool!

Who would have guessed that there is a Radio Shack on Island? They helped us out with the cable to connect an iPod to a stereo - that was the biggest crisis we've had (knocking dutifully on wood)!

Maggie and I are off to get our nails done and then have lunch with our mothers. We enjoyed having a few quiet days before everyone started arriving, and are looking forward to the next few days, spending time with friends and family.

We feel so blessed to have so many dear friends and family with us -- either in spirit or on the Island!

Hurricane Island

So, it appears the Island dodged a bullet and escaped Earl's wrath! Great news for all those getting married Labor Day weekend, and hopefully an omen for good weather for us as well!

We are so thrilled that you will be able to join us for this special time. We've added some information to the "Weekend Activities" section and hope that you will be able to join us at some informal gatherings throughout the weekend. We've also sent this information out by email, but you can also access it here.

The weather should be beautiful this time of year, with highs in the mid 70s and lows in the evening in the low 60s. Bring sunscreen for the days, a sweater for the evenings, and a camera to capture it all! Also, if you haven't done so already, please let us know your cell phone number and where you'll be staying so that we can reach you in case of inclement weather on Saturday.

Finally, for those bringing children, but wanting some quiet grownup time, we recommend Nantucket Babysitters' Service (508-228-4970).

We can't wait to see you! Please let us know if you have any questions or need additional information.
