My MV calendar picture for February 2026 is a painting my dear friend Karen made for me. She and I have known each other almost 20 years yet have never met in person. The love of Martha’s Vineyard is what brought us together in the first place via our blogs and we began referring to ourselves as ‘Vineyard soul sisters’ and who had Gingerbread cottages next to each other in Oak Bluffs. Thus the painting which arrived on my doorstep several months ago.
Oak Bluffs and the Campground in particular are near and dear to my heart. I spent my childhood summers with my parents and relatives in Oak Bluffs and so many memories of my fond memories are of the Campground and the Gingerbread cottages.
