Edgartown Harbour, Martha's Vineyard

Expertly taken - ho hum - from the window of the coach as we enjoyed a rapidfire 500 words a minute tour of the island. Chappaquiddick lies behind the stretch of water where Ted Kennedy swam to safety in 1967.
A light was built here in 1828 but it was severely destroyed by the great hurricane of 1938. The current light was shipped here from Crane's Beach in Ipswich MA two years later.
