Around the island….

The family was there for the “12 Artists – 12 Months” opening at Waterworks Gallery this past Saturday, as (from left) Charles (Matthew’s brother from New York), Matthew Gray Palmer, his mom & stepdad Kathy & Todd joined Danielle to celebrate her work on display – be sure & drop by & check out the show!

Let’s take a look around the island & see what’s happening – it was a great Thanksgiving weekend, wasn’t it? 🙂

Senior parent Melissa Guard was on hand to sell wreaths for the FHHS Class of 2013 this weekend – do you have yours?

• Did you get your wreath at the Holiday Marketplace? You still have a chance – here’s more from Tammy Cotton & the senior parents:

You may have seen us at the Artisan Fair as we are raising money for our Senior Class of 2013 to have a fun and most importantly a safe graduation party!  We are selling the beautiful 24″ holiday wreath with red bow for $25 each (checks payable to FHHS PTSA).  We have about 35 left that we need to sell, and we will deliver!  Please call Tammy at 298-4970 if you would like a wreath.  A huge thank you to those of you who have already purchased wreaths in support of this year’s Senior Class!!

Great to catch up with Wendy with High Seas Tuna at the Holiday Marketplace – she’ll be at the Saturday Market this Saturday at the high school – catch her there & stock up!

• Peggy at The Rumor Mill said the show Saturday night with the True Spokes was great – and that folks left more behind than just memories:

A fabulous time was had by all last night, thanks so much everyone! So in the light of day we are finding the left behinds~~ numerous outerwear items, one pair of ladies shoes, 1 barbie doll, 1 little red fire truck, and a few other things….

• It was nice to read the nice writeup that Ted Strutz put into Yelp about the Hungry Clam, one of my favorite places to eat breakfast in the world….check it out!

• Passing: It was sad to hear of Sam Carter‘s passing on Friday….in a report from the sheriff, there was an accident down at the Port, which is still under investigation. Condolences to the family….hard times & difficult news.

++++++++

That’s Charlie Anderson & Lenore Bayuk cutting the ribbon to open the new hospital a couple of weekends ago, but the Peace Island Medical Center officially opens today (November 26!) for business….it’s a dream come true for the island.
