Oh you guys. There's so much I could say about Nantucket and our near week there with our dear and growing dearer friends (is that possible?). I will. I will. But things kick into high gear when you get home and Christmas is around the corner and Cal keeps saying things like "Nine school days until exams start." Except he says it like this: NINE SCHOOL DAYS UNTIL EXAMS.

You know what I mean. (wink)

So until then, some pictures, few words. Most made it on the 'gram, but some didn't.

We packet so many things in, careening from Town to beach, from restaurant to brewery. And even though we had an extra day, there were still things we couldn't manage. How do you fit it all in? I don't think I'd change a thing. Three more days maybe? Pray for our friends then, right?

I'll be back Thursday with a quickie post, and then edit my photos from Big Daddy this weekend. By then you'll be sick of Nantucket, right? Oh, I've missed you guys. It's good to be back.
