Nantucket windmill
sails removed for protection from the storm.

One of three identical brick-built houses in Nantucket town. They were built for the three sons of one of the wealthy residents
and are the only brick-built houses on the island. Brick was extremely expensive to ship in when Nantucket was in its heyday
and today it is forbidden to build with them.

More gracious piles
this is the home of the Island's preservation society. These properties
together with some others on the island
have the fittings on the front doors (knockers
handles and letter boxes) made from Sterling Silver. A few have them on the doors all year round
others replace them with less valuable items for the winter months.

A sad moment. Looking back at the airport buildings as we prepared for take-off in the little plane back to Boston
and then to New York and England.
