A few weeks ago, some friends, my husband and I visited Block Island for the first time.
The ferry we took from Point Judith, Rhode Island was practically empty this time of year. We were struck by the pastoral beauty and quiet calmness of the island, especially now, in the off-season. In the busy summer season, the island population grows from 1,000 to 15,000. We are thinking of going again next summer, but will travel in our own boat from Woods Hole across Buzzard’s Bay. This selection of photos were taken by our friend, Keith von der Heydt.

P.S. I used to work off my kitchen too when my son wanted me around…now I go to my sewing room and he will still come up there on occasion and hang out…he’s 13.
